Bell to Build Canada's Largest AI Data Center in Regina, Generating $8.8 Billion in Economic Value

Bell Canada plans to build a 300-megawatt data center in Regina, Saskatchewan, which may generate C$12 billion in economic value and add to the company's revenue growth and earnings power. The facility will be occupied by AI chipmaker Cerebras and hyperscaler CoreWeave, with a significant proportion of compute reserved for sovereign purposes. BCE cut its free cash flow guidance for 2026 due to the project, expecting no more than C$2.3 billion this year.
