Forward-looking statements are statements about the future

achievements of Western and its subsidiaries may differ materially
from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or

related to joint venture operations; risks related to cooperation
of government agencies and First Nations in the development of the
property and the issuance of required permits; risks related to the
need to obtain additional financing to develop the property and
uncertainty as to the availability and terms of future financing;
the possibility of delay in construction projects and uncertainty
of meeting anticipated program milestones; uncertainty as to timely
availability of permits and other governmental approvals; and other
risks and uncertainties disclosed in Western's AIF and Form 40-F,
and other information released by Western and filed with the
applicable regulatory agencies.
Western's forward-looking statements are based on the
beliefs, expectations and opinions of management on the date the
