GOLDCORP/GLAMIS
UPDATE
VANCOUVER,
BRITISH COLUMBIA,
October 27, 2006 -
GOLDCORP INC.
announced that yesterday
Glamis Gold Ltd. approved the plan
of arrangement with Goldcorp having
received
an overwhelming 98.6 percent of the
votes cast at its shareholder meeting
in
favour of the plan of arrangement and
today the Supreme Court of British
Columbia granted Glamis its final order
approving the plan of
arrangement.
An appeal
of

will be rendered shortly
thereafter.
Goldcorp
expects the acquisition of Glamis to
be completed by mid November.
