‘Trailer Park Boys’ Actor Mike Smith Pleads Not Guilty to Sexual Assault Charge
Mike Smith entered a not-guilty plea to a sexual assault charge from 2017, with a three-day trial set for early October, court records show.
- On Feb. 26, 2026, Mike Smith pleaded not guilty to one count of sexual assault, with defence lawyer Stan MacDonald entering the plea in a Dartmouth, N.S., courtroom.
- The charge follows an allegation from Dec. 30, 2017, in the Dartmouth area, and Halifax Regional Police laid the charge on Oct. 2, 2025; a publication ban protects the female complainant's identity.
- Smith was released on an undertaking that bars contact with the female complainant and requires him to stay away from her home, workplace and school; his lawyer said the case 'won't be tried in the media.'
- The Crown and defence will meet again on May 8 for a pre-trial conference, and a three-day trial is scheduled for October 1, 2, and 5, Bryson McDonald said he is uncertain about witness numbers.
- Smith has stepped down from Trailer Park Boys Inc. as the company said last year it was aware of the allegations and was taking them seriously, while the charge has attracted international entertainment coverage given his profile as Bubbles.
