Data centre for Canada’s cyber spy agency to be built in Ottawa area - CP24
The federal government is looking to build a 60 MW data centre in Ottawa for Canda’s cyber spy agency. CTV’s Stefan Keyes reports. The federal government is looking to build a data centre in the national capital region to support Canada’s cyber spy agency, saying it will focus on the “mid to long-term objectives” of government operations, security and technology. Defence Construction Canada issued an advance procurement notice for the data centre last week, saying it is informing “design-builders of an upcoming contract located” in the Ottawa area. The estimated cost of the project is $1.5 billion to $1.8 billion, with the tender expected to be issued in 2027. “To increase its capacity in supporting the mid to long-term objectives related to operations, security, and technology modernization, the Government of Canada is planning to design and construction a data centre facility within the national capital region,” said the notice issued on the federal government’s website.
