Best way to serve Kanata would be to build transit on the current planned route (rial or buses, wherever) and have a 10-minute frequency bus loop using bus lanes (could be automated) go around the entirety of Kanata using Hazeldean-Eagleson/March-Terry-Fox. For this to work, a transit station would need to be AT Terry Fox, and not a half kilometer away.
Similar concept should be considered for Barrhaven and Orleans, though it would be tougher due to the overall size and shape of those communities. I guess you could do Jeanne d'Arc, Tenth Line, Innes in Orleans and Fallowfield, Strandheard, Woodroffe in Barrhaven.
These don't cover everything, but better than the current Downtown-bound only system.
