Western Copper and Gold Corporation supports the federal government's decision to expedite the Yukon-B.C. Grid Connect project through the Major Projects Office. This initiative aims to enhance critical minerals development and clean power transmission, benefiting Indigenous communities and energy security. The project could generate C$7.6 billion annually in economic growth, create over 36,000 jobs, and enable 2,000 MW of renewable energy, with Western's Casino Project as a key component.
