On my first download of Trisquel 7.0 LTS Belenos I got no md5sum file

When you download an image, you choose a mirror that then pops up and shows a link to the checksum file.

Here's Sweden's ACC Computer Club (Umeå University).

I just re-read the instructions on [1], and according to that reference,
after the download page ([2]) should automatically redirect you to a
page that has the corresponding hashes.

I also tested this by attempting to download Trisquel 7.0 (all default
options in [2]) and I was correctly redirected to the page which has the
hashes, and it worked both for the direct file download method (.iso)
and with the button that gives me a .torrent file instead.

ACC is a mirror, one of many, and they host identical files. It’s kind of the point — a mirror is a server that ”mirrors” the main server. That’s why the checksum will not differ. I gave you Sweden as an example because it happens to be near my location. Your mileage may vary.

Here’s another one in Rumania. Unlike ACC, which uses https, their connection is not encrypted.

You see, their checksum is the same as expected.
