REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.</b></font></p>



<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><font face="Arial">Alcan Inc. (''Alcan'' or the
''Company'') held its annual investor workshop on September 29, 2005. Alcan's
President and Chief Executive Officer, Travis Engen, provided opening remarks,
followed by members of Alcan's senior management, who discussed the Company's
business units and financial performance. The slides are attached hereto as
Exhibit 99.1 to 99.7 and are incorporated by reference.</font></p>



<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><font face="Arial">The Company has also issued a press
release announcing new long&#8209;term targets for the Company as a whole and
its four business groups, attached hereto as Exhibit 99.8.</font></p>



<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><font face="Arial">The information included in Exhibits 99.1 to 99.8, shall not
be deemed to be &quot;filed&quot; for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the &quot;Exchange Act&quot;), or otherwise subject to the
liability of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any
registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth
by specific reference in such filing.</font></p>



<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><font face="Arial"><b>Forward-Looking Statements</b></font></p>



<p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><font face="Arial">Statements made in the exhibits
hereto which describe the Company's or management's objectives, projections,
estimates, expectations or predictions of the future may be
&quot;forward-looking statements&quot; within the meaning of securities laws,
which can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as
&quot;believes,&quot; &quot;expects,&quot; &quot;may,&quot; &quot;will,&quot;
&quot;should,&quot; &quot;estimates,&quot; &quot;anticipates&quot; or the
negative thereof or other variations thereon.&nbsp; The Company cautions that, by
their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty and that
the Company's actual actions or results could differ materially from those
expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements or could affect the
extent to which a particular projection is realized.&nbsp; Important factors which
could cause such differences include global supply and demand conditions for
aluminum and other products, aluminum ingot prices and changes in raw
materials' costs and availability, changes in the relative value of various
currencies, cyclical demand and pricing within the principal markets for the
Company's products, changes in government regulations, particularly those
affecting environmental, health or safety compliance, economic developments,
relationships with and financial and operating conditions of customers and
suppliers, the effects of integrating acquired businesses and the ability to
attain expected benefits and other factors within the countries in which the
Company operates or sells its products and other factors relating to the
Company's ongoing operations including, but not limited to, litigation, labour
negotiations and fiscal regimes.</font></p>

REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.
Alcan Inc. (''Alcan'' or the
''Company'') held its annual investor workshop on September 29, 2005. Alcan's
President and Chief Executive Officer, Travis Engen, provided opening remarks,
followed by members of Alcan's senior management, who discussed the Company's
business units and financial performance. The slides are attached hereto as
Exhibit 99.1 to 99.7 and are incorporated by reference.
The Company has also issued a press
release announcing new long‑term targets for the Company as a whole and
its four business groups, attached hereto as Exhibit 99.8.
The information included in Exhibits 99.1 to 99.8, shall not
be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), or otherwise subject to the
liability of that section, and shall not be incorporated by reference into any
registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth
by specific reference in such filing.
Forward-Looking Statements
Statements made in the exhibits
hereto which describe the Company's or management's objectives, projections,
estimates, expectations or predictions of the future may be
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of securities laws,
which can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as
"believes," "expects," "may," "will,"
"should," "estimates," "anticipates" or the
negative thereof or other variations thereon.  The Company cautions that, by
their nature, forward-looking statements involve risk and uncertainty and that
the Company's actual actions or results could differ materially from those
expressed or implied in such forward-looking statements or could affect the
extent to which a particular projection is realized.  Important factors which
could cause such differences include global supply and demand conditions for
aluminum and other products, aluminum ingot prices and changes in raw
materials' costs and availability, changes in the relative value of various
currencies, cyclical demand and pricing within the principal markets for the
Company's products, changes in government regulations, particularly those
affecting environmental, health or safety compliance, economic developments,
relationships with and financial and operating conditions of customers and
suppliers, the effects of integrating acquired businesses and the ability to
attain expected benefits and other factors within the countries in which the
Company operates or sells its products and other factors relating to the
Company's ongoing operations including, but not limited to, litigation, labour
negotiations and fiscal regimes.
