What we checked

This is a named-facility account, not a record for every Calcul Québec system or an entire Canadian campus. Rorqual's June 2025 commissioning is historical system-level evidence, not a current whole-facility operating check, an exact facility opening day or available capacity. The undated postal route identifies ÉTS in Montréal but does not establish map coordinates, a particular building or phase. Current operator and legal owner, precise location, capacity, planning and public compute availability remain unverified. Narval is not joined to this record.

These notes describe a bounded inspection, not a whole planning-application audit. They do not count as recorded facility fields, prove that information does not exist elsewhere or refresh this record's check date.

  • Grid connection, PUE, Water use, Chips, Coordinates: Not stated in the inspected source. The inspected Rorqual article states generic GPU/core counts but no processor/GPU model, and no grid voltage/substation, explicit PUE kind/value, water accounting or verified official point/CRS. Generic accelerator counts and commissioning are not chip identities, current availability, facility opening or a postal/geocoded point. Scope recorded 1 November 2026; inspected source context. Calcul Quebec: Copyright retained; no open website licence verified.. Inspection-limit metadata and ordinary release link only; no new hardware quantity, specification, article adaptation or availability account. Calcul Quebec; exact original linked. No endorsement. Selected information reduced to original concise factual statements; no source text, chart, table, image, node-log example or other asset is imported. A different independent source fact/exact-use review completed at 2026-11-01T03:34:53.155Z. KEEP only this original selected-source inspection-limit account and ordinary link. No new physical-field, stage, capacity, certification or availability fact is imported. Copyright/source rights remain with their holders; no government/public-entity public-domain, blanket content, service-use or recurring-source grant is inferred.
