The plug has been pulled on a beer advertising campaign featuring an over-the-top Scotsman after police laid child pornography charges on a Toronto commercial actor.
Robert Norman Smith, 40, is charged with two counts of possession of child pornography and one count of making available child pornography.
It is believed that Smith is the actor best known as the angry Scotsman in the Alexander Keith's beer commercials.
The brewer pledged late Wednesday to terminate any further association with him.
"We are surprised to learn of these charges today," the company said in a statement.
"Clearly, we have decided not to run any future television commercials featuring this actor until this information is confirmed."
Authorities said Smith was the subject of an undercover police investigation.
They searched a Toronto home as part of a probe that involved people who were allegedly downloading child pornography from the Internet.
Smith has been released on $25,000 bail and is due back in court on Thursday.
