Where it stands

MTL-1 is WhiteFiber's leased 4 MW (gross) Tier-3 HPC data center at 3195 Chem de Bedford Road, Montreal, in operation since January 2021 and fully operational when Enovum was acquired in October 2024. A June 2026 investor deck says its full capacity is occupied by 14 customers, and the August 2026 10-Q still calls it fully operational, with $1.9 million of infrastructure spending at MTL-1 in 2026. MTL-2 (Pointe-Claire) and MTL-3 (Saint-Jerome) are separate Montreal-area sites and are not counted here.

Site intelligence

Analytical estimate. Each site below is located from public records (filings, releases, news, OpenStreetMap) and checked against free satellite imagery; "How we located this site" lists every step and the score it earned. The conclusion is computed from night-time lights, surface heat and year-over-year change, with the dates it rests on. These are hypotheses under active tracking, not legal parcels or an official endorsement.

Approximate address 7300 Route Transcanadienne, Pointe-Claire, QC H9R 1C7, Canada Reverse-geocoded from the candidate centroid; not a permit-confirmed parcel address.
Conclusion so far Operating: the site is lit at night like a running facility. · confidence 60%
Running: night-time lights at the site ran 2.44x the surrounding area (8 of 9 clear nights, 2026-07-24 to 2026-09-14); surface temperature +1.8 K against its surroundings (15 pass(es), 2026-06-29 to 2026-10-14). Based on 46 clear observation(s) from 2026-06-21 to 2026-10-19.
What would change this: Lights going dark over several clear nights.

Satellite imagery on this page is drawn from the Google Earth satellite basemap, ESA Sentinel-2 multispectral (10 m, with per-date cloud masks), NASA / USGS Landsat 8/9 (30 m, plus surface temperature), ESA Sentinel-1 radar (all-weather, night), NASA ECOSTRESS thermal (~70 m), and NASA Black Marble night lights (500 m, daily). Each image is dated, labelled by source and pixel resolution, and downloadable at its native size; cloudy dates are kept and marked rather than hidden. New scenes are pulled daily as each provider publishes them.
