Wesley won $25,000 in August after a civil lawsuit for defamatory comments made by Jakubec when he told the Wallaceburg Courier Press that “Wesley misled the public and he cannot be trusted” in reference to turbid water wells thought to be caused by the pile driving of wind turbines.

An examination hearing will go over Jakubec’s finances and requires someone in debt to disclose income, expenses, debts and assets.  Wesley will be donating all funds to a charity or group dedicated to the preservation of clean drinking water.
