You are correct that the A-50 was originally supposed to end just across from Pembroke but that was in the heady highway building and plannin days.
The A-50 won't be extended any further going west. At least very least you would have expected it to go all the way to Aylmer within the urban area, but instead they build Boul. des Allumettières which is part urban boulevard, part highway but still designated as Route 148.
If anything the westernmost segment of A-50 between the A-5 and Montcalm might be decommissioned and turned into an urban boulevard at some point the future.

Maybe once (if) the A 50 is 4 laned, then, afterwards could be extended.
