quick side story, I have friends from the Dominican Republic, they look at an atlas and see the DR is two pages, they look at Canada and its 2 pages, he is 38 years old and has NEVER been to the other side of his own country, its a huge trip to him ( 270 km's) and that's un heard of, Heck Regina Sask, to its closest Large City Saskatoon is 250 km's.
I would seriously reconsider your trip plans depending on what you are used to driving, and the shear size of our Country, you would be better to spend the month on the east, if you really want to go across Canada, as has been suggested, rent a local RV, tour the maritimes, jump a plane to Toronto, rent local, tour area, jump a plane to Calgary or Edmonton, rinse and repeat.
you still have not told us what your interests are to help you out. I know personally I could spend a few days just around south western Saskatchewan walking the T.rex fossil trails, the exhibits there, while in Regina you can check out F division of the RCMP that is there training area, watch the Musical ride that is something to see, plus there museum that's another day.
I don't want to discourage you, but your trip sounds like it will be very rushed I know myself I could easily spend a week in each province to see the sites, and know I am missing a lot.
Good luck with the trip. take lots of pictures and really don't want to discourage you but I think you should seriously break down your trip into much smaller bites.
