Statement from the Yukon Party on YG Court Filing Against Victoria Gold

“We are aware of the August 14, 2024, news release from the Victoria Gold Corporation that indicates the Yukon Government has filed an application to appoint a receiver over the company and its property.

“Other than this news release we have no other information.

“It is incumbent on the Yukon Government to explain why they have taken this court action.

“The position of the Yukon Party Official Opposition remains that the best possible outcome is for the company to retain control of the site, complete and pay for the environmental clean-up, and develop a plan to bring the mine back into production. In our view this is the best option to ensure Yukoners can go back to work, that Yukon businesses will get paid, and that Yukon taxpayers will not be on the hook for the
environmental clean up.”
