The OpenText-TELUS Canadian Sovereign Cloud
Launched in July 2025, the OpenText and TELUS Canadian Sovereign Cloud is a purpose-built solution running entirely within TELUS's Canadian data centres. It delivers high-performance AI computing alongside enterprise cloud services, all within a secure environment that meets Canadian security standards and privacy regulations. OpenText's Aviator AI products are integrated in a wholly sovereign configuration, with all operations hosted domestically.
Government and AI readiness
TELUS and OpenText are both early signatories of the Government of Canada's voluntary AI code of conduct. OpenText's private cloud solutions are available through existing PSPC procurement channels and have undergone full technical evaluation. For government organizations, this means the sovereign cloud is procurement-ready — not a prototype. Over 1,600 Canadian institutions already use OpenText services, with nearly 1,000 actively running AI-powered cloud applications.
Sovereignty profile
TELUS Corporation is Canadian-incorporated and Canadian-owned (TSX/NYSE listed). The sovereign cloud data centres in Rimouski and Kamloops operate entirely within Canadian jurisdiction. No foreign parent company. No CLOUD Act exposure. No foreign operational access. For Canadian organizations, TELUS Cloud provides enterprise-grade infrastructure with full-stack sovereignty.
