WUC Western Uranium Corp.

Western Uranium Corporation (the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:WUC) announced today
that the Company's shareholders approved all matters put to shareholders at the
Company's Annual General Meeting held on March 30, 2009 (the "Meeting"). The
Company's directors for the next year will be Edward Flood (Chair), Pamela
Klessig (Chief Executive Officer), John Proust, Debra Struhsacker and Harry
Dobson.


In addition, disinterested shareholders of the Company approved a new stock
option plan at the Meeting. The new stock option plan allows for the issuance of
up to 10% of the Company's issued and outstanding common shares at any given
time. The new Stock Option Plan will provide an incentive to the directors,
officers, employees and consultants to continue their involvement with the
Company and to increase their efforts on the Company's behalf by allowing the
Company to grant options to directors, officers, employees and consultants as
additional compensation and as an opportunity to participate in the growth of
the Company.


Further to the Company's news release dated December 15, 2008, the shareholders
of the Company approved and ratified the shareholders rights plan (the "Rights
Plan"). The Rights Plan is contained in an agreement between the Company and
Computershare Investor Services Inc. dated December 15, 2008. The Rights Plan
has been designed to protect shareholders of the Company from unfair, abusive or
coercive take-over strategies, including the acquisition of control of the
Company by a bidder in a transaction or series of transactions that does not
treat all shareholders equally or fairly or provide all shareholders an equal
opportunity to share in the premium paid on an acquisition of control. The
Rights Plan provides management and the board of directors with more than the 35
day statutory minimum period under Canadian securities laws to review the terms
of a take-over bid and solicit alternative offers. The Rights Plan is not
intended to prevent a take-over or deter fair offers for securities of the
Company. Rather, it is designed to encourage anyone seeking to acquire control
of the Company to make an offer that represents fair value to all holders of
common shares.
