Walker Lane Resources Ltd. Announces Closing of Private Placement

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Walker Lane Resources Ltd. (TSX-V: WLR) (Frankfurt:6YL) ('WLR' or the 'Company') is pleased to announce, further to its news releases of June 10, 2025, that it has received TSX Venture Exchange approval to close the non-brokered private placement (the 'Private Placement'). On July 23, 2025, the Company issued 2,508,335 non-flow through Units (each a 'NFT Unit') at a price of $0.12 per NFT Unit, for gross proceeds of $301,000, and 607,143 flow-through Units (each a 'FT Unit') at a price of $0.14 per FT Unit, for gross proceeds of $85,000, for aggregate gross proceeds of $386,000. Each NFT Unit is composed of one common share and one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a 'NFT Warrant'). Each FT Unit is composed of one common share and one common share purchase warrant (each whole warrant, a 'FT Warrant'), each NFT Warrant and each FT Warrant are exercisable for two (2) years at $0.16 per common share.
An insider of the Company subscribed for an aggregate of 1,178,571 Units, composed of 750,000 NFT Units and 428,571 FT Units. Such participation was considered to be a 'related party transaction' as this term is defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 - Protection of Minority Securityholders in Special Transactions ('MI 61-101'). The Company relied on the exemption from valuation requirement and minority approval pursuant to subsection 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of MI 61-101, respectively, for the insider participation in the Offering, as the securities do not represent more than 25% of the Company's market capitalization, as determined in accordance with MI 61-101.
The Company intends to use the proceeds from the sale of FT Units to incur 'Canadian exploration expenses' and 'flow through mining expenditures' as these terms are defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada) and, in particular, the Company's exploration program at its Amy and Silver Hart Properties in the Rancheria Silver District, (Yukon/British Columbia), and potentially limited activities at Logjam (Yukon). Such proceeds will be renounced to the subscribers with an effective date not later than December 31, 2025, in the aggregate amount of not less than the total amount of gross proceeds raised from the issue of FT Units. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of NFT units for its properties in Nevada including Tule Canyon, Cambridge and Silver Mountain and for general working capital. The FT and NFT Units issued under the financing are subject to a four-month hold.

EU push to protect digital rules holds up trade statement with US: report

The European Union is trying to prevent the US from targeting the bloc's digital rules as both sides work through the final details of a delayed statement to formalize a trade deal reached last month, the Financial Times reported on Sunday. EU officials said disagreements over language relating to 'non-tariff barriers,' which the US said include the digital rules, are among the reasons for the hold-up of the statement, the newspaper said. Reuters could not immediately verify the report. The European Union, the White House and the State Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Advertisement The statement had originally been expected days after the July announcement by EU President Ursula von der Leyen and President Trump, according to FT. The July deal imposed a 15% import tariff on most EU goods — half the initially threatened rate — and helped avert a broader trade war between the two allies, who together account for nearly a third of global trade. Advertisement The Trump administration says the EU's Digital Services Act stifles free speech and imposes costs on US tech firms. Getty Images The US wanted to keep the door open for possible concessions on the EU's Digital Services Act, which Washington says stifles free speech and imposes costs on US tech companies, according to FT, which added that the commission has said that relaxing these rules is a red line. The EU's DSA is a landmark law meant to make the online environment safer and fairer by compelling tech giants to do more to tackle illegal content, including hate speech and child sexual abuse material. The commission had anticipated that Trump would sign an executive order by this past Friday to cut tariffs on EU car exports to the US from 27.5% to 15%. However, a US official signaled that this would be delayed until the joint statement was finalized, according to FT.

Air Canada suspends restart plans after flight attendants won't return to work

'Our members are not going back to work,' Canadian Union of Public Employees national president Mark Hancock said outside Toronto's Pearson International Airport. 'We are saying no.' Advertisement The federal government didn't immediately provide comment on the union refusing to return to work. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Hancock said the 'whole process has been unfair' and said the union will challenge what it called an unconstitutional order. 'Air Canada has really refused to bargain with us and they refused to bargain with us because they knew this government would come in on their white horse and try and save the day,' he said. The country's largest airline had said early Sunday in a release that the first flights would resume later in the day but that it will take several days before its operations return to normal. It said some flights will be canceled over the next seven to 10 days until the schedule is stabilized. Advertisement Less than 12 hours after workers walked off the job, Federal Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu ordered the 10,000 flight attendants back to work, saying now is not the time to take risks with the economy and noting the unprecedented tariffs the U.S. has imposed on Canada. Hajdu referred the work stoppage to the Canada Industrial Relations Board. The airline said the CIRB has extended the term of the existing collective agreement until a new one is determined by the arbitrator. The shutdown of Canada's largest airline early Saturday was impacting about 130,000 people a day. Air Canada operates around 700 flights per day. Flight attendants walked off the job around 1 a.m. EDT on Saturday. Around the same time, Air Canada said it would begin locking flight attendants out of airports. The bitter contract fight escalated Friday as the union turned down Air Canada's prior request to enter into government-directed arbitration, which allows a third-party mediator to decide the terms of a new contract. Last year, the government forced the country's two major railroads into arbitration with their labor union during a work stoppage. The union for the rail workers is suing, arguing the government is removing a union's leverage in negotiations. The Business Council of Canada had urged the government to impose binding arbitration in this case, too. And the Canadian Chamber of Commerce welcomed the intervention. Hajdu maintained that her Liberal government is not anti-union, saying it is clear the two sides are at an impasse. Passengers whose flights are impacted will be eligible to request a full refund on the airline's website or mobile app, according to Air Canada. The airline said it would also offer alternative travel options through other Canadian and foreign airlines when possible. Still, it warned that it could not guarantee immediate rebooking because flights on other airlines are already full 'due to the summer travel peak.' Advertisement Air Canada and CUPE have been in contract talks for about eight months, but they have yet to reach a tentative deal. Both sides have said they remain far apart on the issue of pay and the unpaid work flight attendants do when planes aren't in the air. The airline's latest offer included a 38% increase in total compensation, including benefits and pensions, over four years, that it said 'would have made our flight attendants the best compensated in Canada.' But the union pushed back, saying the proposed 8% raise in the first year didn't go far enough because of inflation.

Air Canada delays flight resumption after back-to-work order defied

Air Canada is facing a near-total shutdown as its flight attendants union went on strike after talks over pay and unpaid work broke down. Photo by Graham Hughes/EPA Aug. 17 (UPI) -- Air Canada on Sunday delayed plans to resume limited operations after flight attendants defied a government-mandated back-to-work order and binding arbitration. Limited service instead will resume on Monday night, the airline said in a news release Sunday. Flight attendants with Air Canada and Air Canada Rouge originally were ordered to return to shifts by 2 p.m. Sunday, CBC reported. The 10,000 flight attendants remain on strike, which began after midnight Saturday. "We invite Air Canada back to the table to negotiate a fair deal, rather than relying on the federal government to do their dirty work for them when bargaining gets a little bit tough," the Canadian Union of Public Employees said in a statement. "We have received overwhelming support from the public and Union workers everywhere," the union posted on Facebook. "This is an historic moment for labor and for workers across the country." CUPE National President Mark Hancock ripped up the order Sunday in front of a cheering crowd outside Toronto's Pearson International Airport. "We will continue to fight on the picket lines, on the streets, at the bargaining table, in the courts, and in Parliament, until the injustice of unpaid work is done for good," he said Saturday in a union news release. "Workers will win -- despite the best effort of the Liberal government and their corporate friends." On Saturday, 12 hours after the strike, Jobs Minister Patty Haju invoked Section 107 of the Canadian Labor Code, which directs the Canadian Relations Board to arbitrate the dispute and extended the terms of the existing agreement until a new one is determined by an arbiter. The contract expired on March 31. "We will be challenging this blatantly unconstitutional order that violates the Charter rights of 10,000 flight attendants, 70 percent of whom are women, and 100 percent of whom are forced to do hours of unpaid work by their employer every time they come to work," the union said in a statement. Air Canada said the union "illegally directed its flight attendants to defy a direction" from the Canadian Industrial Relations Board to return to work. The carrier said it planned to resume approximately 240 of its normal 700 flights a day, though it would take seven to 10 days for the schedule to "stabilize." More than 130,000 travelers worldwide fly on the airline daily. Canada's largest airline includes 170 international ones, and from 50 Canadian airports. Between more than 50 U.S. airports and Canada, the company averages about 430 daily flights. Air Canada Express, with 300 regional flights, is operated by Jazz Aviation and PAl Airlines, is not affected. Customers will be notified about canceled flights and are strongly advised not to go the airport unless they have confirmed flights on other airlines. Those on canceled flights can obtain a full refund or receive a credit for future travel. Also, the carrier will offer to rebook customers on other carriers, although capacity is limited because of the peak summer travel season. Flight attendants went on strike at 12:58 a.m. EDT Saturday and the company locked them out at 1:30 a.m. The flight attendants and their supporters were on picket lines throughout Canada. The last negotiations were on Friday night, and no new talks were scheduled. "Air Canada and CUPE flight attendants are at an impasse and remain unable to resolve their dispute," she said in a statement released Saturday afternoon Eastern time. "Canadians are increasingly finding themselves in very difficult situations and the strike is rapidly impacting the Canadian economy." "This decision will help make sure that hundreds of thousands of Canadians and visitors to our country are not impacted because of cancelled flights. Further, the shipments of critical goods such as pharmaceuticals and organ tissue, over 40% of which are moved by Air Canada, should continue to reach their destinations," she said. On Wednesday, the airline served the union a statutory 72-hour lockout notice in response to the union's 72-hour strike notice. Air Canada was canceling flights ahead of the work stoppage. "I don't think anyone's in the mood to go back to work," Lillian Speedie, vice president of CUPE Local 4092, told CBC at a picket line outside Toronto Pearson International Airport in Mississauga on Sunday. "To legislate us back to work 12 hours after we started? I'm sorry, snowstorms have shut down Air Canada for longer than we were allowed to strike." The Air Canada union asked the jobs minister to direct the parties to enter into binding arbitration. But on Saturday afternoon, the union blasted the order to end the strike and posted images and video strikers. More visuals were posted Sunday. "This sets a terrible precedent. Contrary to the Minister's remarks, this will not ensure labor peace at Air Canada," the union said Saturday. Air Canada has become dependent on the federal government to solve its labor-relations issues, Steven Tufts, associate professor and labour geographer at York University, told CBC. "Air Canada has to learn not to call mommy and daddy every time they reach an impasse at the bargaining table," Tufts said. "They have to actually sit down and get a deal done with their workers." In 2024, Air Canada asked for the government to be ready to step in but the two sides reached a tentative agreement. Flight attendants want to be compensated for work before the flights take off and after they land. Typically with most airlines, they get paid only for the hours they are in the air.
