(TSX – WES) – Western Financial Group (the “Company”) announced
today that it has completed the acquisition of 15 locations in Northern British Columbia previously announced in its December 1, 2006 press release, as well as an additional location in Southern B.C.

The Company has now completed the acquisition of the Sawchuk Group, with three offices in Dawson Creek, four offices in Fort St. John, and one office in Fort Nelson, as well as its Sawchuk Financial Services division
