The "MW, all listings" tile above is a wider measure (every tracked site that reports MW, any status, unverified directory listings included), so it is larger than Total listed.

## Colocation lease rates in Toronto

DC Hub does not hold a lease-rate figure for this market yet.

This operator concentration reflects a mature, consolidated market where facility acquisition and portfolio integration have shaped the competitive structure. The market remains geographically and operationally centered on the city's established data center corridors.

These metrics suggest that new entrants or existing operators seeking significant expansion will face material obstacles in power acquisition rather than abundance.

Recent tracked deal activity in Toronto remains minimal, with no deals recorded in the current window. The Ontario government's new data center framework announcement suggests policy-level recognition of infrastructure gaps, though framework adoption and project execution typically lag announcement. Operator dynamics continue to reflect consolidation and asset optimization rather than aggressive new-build announcements.
