Two Hamilton men, charged with mischief after cow manure was dumped in front of Premier Doug Ford’s constituency office in December, will appear in court next week.

Climate activists shovelled manure outside Ford’s office on Albion Road in Etobicoke on Dec. 22, declaring the premier’s climate action strategy a “load of crap.”

A news release issued at the time said the act was in coordination with Extinction Rebellion, a non-violent, international climate activist movement.

Cameron Topp, 49, and Dennis Alvey, 55, were each arrested in January and charged with one count of mischief under $5,000, police confirmed Friday.

Topp is due in court on Tuesday at 2201 Finch Ave. W. and Alvey is scheduled to appear Feb. 21.
