Au Sommet Canada UE de Montréal, le 30 octobre 2026, le Canada est devenu le 39e État participant de l'entreprise commune EuroHPC. Le ministre de l'Intelligence artificielle et de l'Innovation numérique, Evan Solomon, a indiqué que les chercheurs et innovateurs canadiens auront accès à des ressources de calibre mondial en supercalcul, en IA et en informatique quantique, y compris l'infrastructure quantique européenne qu'EuroHPC déploie aux côtés de ses superordinateurs.

Canada has joined the EuroHPC Joint Undertaking, the European funding body that pools national and EU resources for supercomputing, AI and quantum infrastructure. The membership was announced at the Canada EU Summit in Montréal on October 30, 2026 and makes Canada the 39th participating state. Evan Solomon, Minister of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Innovation, said the partnership will let Canadian researchers and innovators access world class supercomputing, AI and quantum computing resources.
EuroHPC is building a European quantum computing infrastructure that integrates several quantum technologies with existing supercomputers. For Canada's quantum agenda the step sits alongside the National Quantum Strategy, the NRC Quantum Safe Technologies Initiative and the Calgary Quantum Defence Innovation Secure Hub: more Canadian access to large quantum machines, and more reason for infrastructure operators to assume the capability curve keeps steepening.
Access to quantum computers is good news for Canadian research and a reminder for Canadian operators. The same machines that will accelerate materials science are the ones that will eventually read traffic recorded today under RSA and elliptic curve key exchange. Canada has set deadlines; most people have not read them. The order of operations has not changed: inventory before equipment, then protect what is long lived, then prove it to an auditor.
