The Feds have been doling out billions for transit. Winnipeg (and Manitoba) is just bad at it.

If we plan ahead, we know what we want and achieve the result faster and more efficiently.

I would think the population placement also has something to do with it. Manitoba has 60%+ of its population in the Winnipeg region. Saskatchewan is far more spread out so there's a higher usage of the intra province network.
