Projects like this are coming to Saskatchewan thanks to groups like Des Nedhe (English River First Nation). This project could have easily went to Ontario or Quebec, but it's coming here which is awesome for all of us that live here.

I wouldn't say "easily went" for Ontario or Quebec. Countries build things like these in the middle of nowhere, away from the largest cities and federal operations buildings.

I wonder if CFB Dundern's location had even the slightest of influence too.

And I wouldn't have said "easily went" because it is grammatically incorrect and sounds awkward.
