TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / April 1, 2021 / It is with great sadness that the Board of Directors of Victory Nickel Inc. ("Victory Nickel" or the "Company") (CSE:NI) (www.victorynickel.ca) announces that Rene Galipeau, a founding director and the Company's first CEO, has passed away.
"On behalf of the Board of Directors and management, I wish to extend my deepest condolences to Rene's family and friends at this difficult time," said Cynthia Thomas, Executive Chair. "Rene had close to 40 years in the minerals and mining industries in Canada and the U.S. He was known as a man who always saw the possibility and potential not only in the many businesses he was involved with but also the many teams he was a part of and leader of. His integrity, dedication, creativity and compassion were the hallmarks of his career. Rene reveled in the challenges and opportunities throughout his long career but none so much as the pride and joy in being a tremendous family man. Rene Galipeau will be missed."
