Who is ?

Little Town Big Data

We are a non-profit society that exists to support Canadian navigate Data Centres moving into their communities.

We believe in progress! We are in favour of economic prosperity!

We also know that the current legislation and regulatory climate surrounding data centres is non-existent. That leaves the onus on communities to navigate the health, safety and longterm viability of data centres when proposals come knocking.

Whether you are currently trying to keep your community safe or you’re simply keen to see Canada introduce meaningful legislation and regulation, Little Town Big Data is here for you.

Letter Campaign:
Write to Environmental Minister, Request a Moratorium

AI data centres in our backyard with zero regulations and consultations. 

We can still stop this. The Minister of Environment and Protected Areas, Grant Hunter, can put a temporary pause (a moratorium) on AI data centres. But he will only do it if all of us speak up. Send a message to Minister Hunter and your MLA now!

When a data centre is proposed, the onus is currently on  communities to uphold health, safety and  longterm viability. Canadian communities are at a disadvantage and we believe Canada can do better.

Stopping a Data Centre

in Canada

Countryside Vineyard View

Data Centres present incredible economic opportunity for Canada but that prosperity cannot come at the expense of longterm wellbeing for Canadian families and their communities. It’s important that municipal governments and entrepreneurial enterprises put health, safety of communities are the forefront of their planning.

When it comes to stopping a data centre from being built in Canada, there is no “one-size-fits-all” approach. Because there is currently zero legislation or regulation for this industry, in order to push back against a data centre in Canada, It takes a personal vested interest from the community.

When the largest data centre that had ever been proposed in Canada came knocking in Olds, Alberta our team learned who, what and where existed as resources and options for ensuring the best possible outcome for our neighbours!
