montreal-1, in plain sight.

montreal-1 is the Storm Buckets endpoint in Montreal, Quebec. This page names who leases us the hardware, the building it sits in, and who owns both, so you can decide with the facts in front of you.

The provider

OneProvider leases us the server. OneProvider is a Canadian company with no parent company outside Canada.

OneProvider supplies the hardware, the power and the network connection, and replaces a failed disk in about a day. Storm runs everything on the server, from the operating system to the storage.

Verified 2026-10-06, in writing from OneProvider.

The data centre

The server sits in MTL-02, Leaseweb Canada's data centre at 7207 Boulevard Newman, LaSalle, Montreal.

Leaseweb Canada is owned by Leaseweb Global, a Dutch company. We chose this building on purpose. Most Montreal data centres have a US parent and this one does not, and Leaseweb rents OneProvider only the space, power, cooling and network.

The alpha endpoint is separate from montreal-1, and its capacity is a grant that is never billed. One account can hold an alpha grant there and paid blocks on montreal-1.

A block is capacity for your own data, applications, and sites. The Acceptable Use Policy sets the boundary, and abuse reports are acknowledged within 48 hours.
