About
A Newfoundland company on the Labrador power story.
Open People is a constituent and catalyst voice for keeping firm Churchill Falls / Gull Island power in Newfoundland and Labrador. Mining and Labrador industry first. is a named use of that power, not a reserved block, and not a seat at the deal table.
We are not a party to the , an offtake seat, or a demand seat. We are not raising to buy a hyperscale data centre. The public work is in-province use and transparency while the framework is still a framework. If partners later build capacity, Open People's role is the software layer, while infrastructure partners carry construction and GPU balance sheets.
That stance is deliberate. Capital reality killed the “raise to own the steel” path. The durable position is catalyst, not principal ownership of billion-dollar shells.
The company is based in St. John's. Founder Tom Lane also built and operates Snow White Laundry on Water Street, a live operator record and, under strict rules, a hospitality setting for coalition partners (not for public officials).
