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 the October 24, 2006 decision of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice has been scheduled to be heard on November 1, 2006.  The Court had dismissed the application brought by Robert McEwen and determined that Goldcorp has complied with all applicable laws with respect to the transaction with Glamis.  Goldcorp expects that the decision on the appeal will be rendered shortly thereafter.

Goldcorp expects the acquisition of Glamis to be completed by mid November.
