At least two companies from eastern Canada are expressing interest in expanding operations following Greyhound's decision to end service in Western Canada at the end of October.
Ontario-based Kasper Transportation has already expanded into Manitoba and says it's working on a route connecting Winnipeg to Saskatchewan.
Maritime Bus says it sees room for a new network of services involving private businesses with support from provincial and federal governments.
It picked up the slack when an international company dropped its routes in New Brunswick six years ago.
