In the quiet north, where snow whispers secrets to the wind, a new alliance emerges-HIVE’s BUZZ HPC, the digital blacksmith forging futures with silicon and fire, has clasped hands with Bell Canada. A partnership as inevitable as the dawn-only this dawn comes packed with NVIDIA’s thunderous GPUs-Ampere, Hopper, and the elusive Blackwell-connected through the mighty InfiniBand web.
This tale comes from Theminermag, where the crypto miners, perhaps a little too obsessed with hashes and hashes of hashing, keep watch over the high-tech horizon.
Imagine clusters of GPU giants, humming with the power of NVIDIA’s finest, whispering sweet nothings to each other through fiber optic veins. Bell’s data sanctuaries-their cathedrals of code-will house these mechanical marvels in their new data temples, ready to serve the AI gods.
First stop, Manitoba-because nothing screams “high tech” like installing 5 megawatts of raw AI muscle in the cold-planned for later this year. And don’t worry, more sites are already in the works, like rock stars on tour, bringing the future closer… or at least making the present a little more AI-infused.
This merry band of tech titans offers Canadian government folks, big businesses, and even the occasional curious student the keys to the NVIDIA kingdom-training AI giants, fine-tuning digital gods, and perhaps, just perhaps, keeping the U.S. at bay with a smirk and some hydro power.
Bell, the telecom colossus-serving millions, from your grandma’s TV binge to the government’s secret files-has a market cap bigger than some small countries. Its crown jewel, the Bell AI Fabric, is unfolding a multiyear saga to stitch together a network of AI fortresses across the nation, powered by Canada’s clean, green hydro energy.
Beginning modestly in British Columbia with a 7 MW AI hub in Kamloops, thanks to U.S. chipmakers Groq, the plan escalates-because what’s better than a cool summer in the mountains? A 26 MW facility at Thompson Rivers University in ’26, training students to talk to machines, perhaps in a language only they understand. And beyond-more mega-centers, more power, more AI magic.
All of this, a grand strategy: Canada’s bid to stand tall, sovereign and proud, against the giants of the cloud-AWS, Google, Microsoft-armored with hydro and a fiercely Canadian resolve. Because if the future’s a game, then this is Canada’s move, and they’re not playing checkers.
Fancy reading the original saga? It’s just a click away here. And remember-Guard your data like you guard your loved ones; the AI revolution is just getting started.
