Trial Set for Anti-SOGI Tractor Driver Who Crashed on B.C. Highway
- On November 25, 2023, BC Highway Patrol tried to stop Malkiat Shoker driving a tractor in a convoy on Highway 1 near Surrey, B.C.
- During an attempted traffic stop near 176th Street, a tractor involved in a convoy overturned after coming into contact with a police car while entering Highway 1.
- Shoker said his tractor protest opposed the educational resource SOGI 123, and his lawyer Paul Dutt said they will defend his rights vigorously.
- Shoker is charged with attacking a law enforcement officer using a weapon, evading police custody, and operating a vehicle dangerously; his trial is scheduled for February 23–26, 2026.
- The scheduled trial suggests legal proceedings will address both the criminal charges and issues related to freedom of speech rights.
