Almost 9 months ago, I shared the story of Guy Meister, a trucker and mechanic from Nova Scotia, who was one of the leaders of the eastern leg of the Convoy that made it's way to Ottawa in 2022.

His trial is concluding shortly in March. Guy stayed for the entire convoy, along with his friend Sam Field, who is also a mechanic, a trucker, and a farmer from the Annapolis Valley in Nova Scotia.

Both of these gentleman remained respectful and peaceful throughout the duration of the Convoy, and worked with others to shovel snow, salt sidewalks, and feed the homeless when city workers were no longer maintaining the streets. They talk of how the salt bins left by subway entrances were locked to prevent them from salting and to make it more dangerous and challenging for Convoy participants and other locals.

Guy was eventually arrested and charged with resisting arrest, mischief, and obstruction of justice. The first charge was dropped, but he's had to come to Ottawa on his own dime and expense 16 times for court hearings on these charges. He believes the case against him is groundless, but that they are trying to wear him out and make him sick of coming so that perhaps he will plead guilty.

His case is concluding in March, but he needs your help to cover his fees, and costs required to repeatedly travel from Nova Scotia to Ottawa to attend court.
