Sexual assault trial begins for ‘Trailer Park Boys’ actor Mike Smith

DARTMOUTH — A three-day sexual assault trial is scheduled to begin today for Nova Scotia-based actor Mike Smith, best known for playing Bubbles on the TV comedy "Trailer Park Boys."

A sexual assault trial is set to commence for Canadian actor Mike Smith, renowned for his role as Bubbles in the popular TV comedy "Trailer Park Boys." The three-day legal proceedings are scheduled to commence today in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. Smith is facing a single charge of sexual assault, stemming from an incident allegedly occurring in 2017.

He has entered a plea of not guilty to the allegations. According to court documents obtained, Smith was formally charged on October 2, 2025. However, the specific details of the alleged incident have not yet been disclosed, as they await their debut in the courtroom. The court documents reveal that Smith is prohibited from any form of communication or visitation to the complainant's residence, workplace, or educational institution, a protection afforded to her by a standard court order.

Notably, Trailblaze Boys Inc., the production company at the time that included Smith among its three directors, acknowledged awareness of the allegations in the previous year and expressed their seriousness. The other two directors associated with the company are John Paul Tremblay and Robert Wells. Last year, Trailer Park Boys Inc. also confirmed that Smith had relinquished his involvement with the company.
