Landscape and general lens dilema

Folks,

We're heading to Canada soon and I'm after recommendations for a landscape and general use lens.

At the moment I have a Canon 350D, 18-55(rubbish), 70-300(rubbish), 70-200 f4L IS (lovely), and 1.4x L converter.

I'm thinking of one of these to go on the 350D,

EF-S 17-55 f2.8
16-35 f2.8L II
17-40 f4L

Another alternative would be to buy an older Canon 5D body (5D MkII is beyond sensible for my usage) and get one of the following:

24-70 f2.8L
24-105 f4L
24 f2.8 and 50 f1.4 primes

Help!! Are any of these lenses better/worse than the others for landscapes and general shooting?

Cheers,
Jason.
