I fully agree with your reasoning on what would be most useful. However, I still put my bet on Cornwall first!

filter on "Tesla HPWC (Model S)"
shows 18
my first click his this one, an 80A, good for ~100km/h of charging

Obviously, this is a private charger, but still, doesn't hurt to make a call and ask...

As a first SC in the Montreal-Toronto corridor it wouldn't make sense from Tesla:
Montreal Cornwall = 116 km
Cornwall - Toronto = +/- 435 km (not enough, by experience, to make it with one full charge, especially if it's raining or if the pavement is wet... worse when the snow will be there)
The Kingston has to be the one:
Montreal - Kingston = 288 km
Kingston - Toronto = +/- 262 km
My two cents that Kingston will be the next after Squa & Drummondville

Not very likely to be Kingston any time soon. Proposed location is in the outdoor mall expansion which still has a couple months before it takes any kind of shape.

Great news. One more week.
They'll miss the chance to make it #100 I guess, but close. Let's how for you guys they don't keep the 100:1 radio going

Squamish may yet be #100 in north america. According to supercharge.info, there are 99 operational and 7 in construction in the US. The next one amongst those seven (eight, to include the Squamish site) will be #100 in NA.

I visited the Tesla Store in Vancouver about 2 months ago. Unfortunately I did not have time for a test drive.
Just got a call today from the pleasant lady I spoke with there.
She told me that they are pushing forward with the Red Deer Supercharger and hope to have it completed by Labour Day (September 1) this year.

Elon Musk twitter feed from about an hour ago ... "A lot of Canadian Superchargers are in work and will start going live in a month or so."

Heh hehe .... to be sure, the statement is ambiguous enough - "start going live in a month or so" means that a single station going live in a month = promise kept!

Not to be a downer, but Tesla responded to one of my Facebook posts similarly almost a year ago.
I was at the Toronto East service center yesterday (just to buy a NEMA 14-30 adapter). I didn't see any evidence of supercharger work happening, but they did tell me (3 weeks ago) that it was definitely the site for the coming Toronto SC station.
I was hoping to see progress evidence. No such luck. If anyone is in there over the next few weeks please do post an update. I really hope Elon is providing an accurate outlook on Canadian sites this time around.

I was there last weekend. I was told a head/lead SuperCharger engineer was there recently scoping out and measuring the site. They are going along the fence across from the service centre entrance door (6 or 8 spots / 3 or 4 stalls/podiums).
But no, no visible work being performed.

The stall are pretty now and pouring concrete appears to be almost done. Got a shot of where the electrical magic is in relation to the parking lot, right next to the garbage bins.

I think this means that he is personally aware of the frustration level up here, and I would bet he is pushing his team to make it happen for us. Elon does not like leaving large swaths of customers unhappy.
I drove through Squamish this afternoon, won't both posting my pics, but the guy working said that there must have been at least 30 Tesla Owners who have stopped and taken pictures. I asked if he was moving to Hope next, he said it wasn't confirmed but that the crew was really hoping to.
It is looking really good, and it is a good location with lots of food/shopping options a very short walk away. I might have to come to Whistler more often...
