From Slopes to Shadows: The Rise and Fall of Ryan Wedding

Ryan James Wedding’s life reads like a cautionary tale of talent, ambition, and a descent into infamy. Once celebrated as a Canadian Olympian, he is now branded by U.S. authorities as one of the world’s most violent drug traffickers. Here’s a timeline tracing his dramatic transformation: Early Promise (2002) Wedding represented Canada at the Salt Lake City Winter Olympics , competing in the men’s parallel giant slalom snowboarding event. Seen as a rising star, his athletic career was short-lived, with little public spotlight after the Games. First Legal Troubles (2000s–2010s) Reports suggest Wedding became entangled in criminal networks during the years following his Olympic appearance.

Parliament's Last-Minute Decision on $21B Spending Bill


                                                                        

 In a dramatic turn of events, Members of Parliament are gearing up for an eleventh-hour vote on a $21.6 billion spending bill. The vote, which is set to take place late tonight, comes just hours before the crucial deadline of December 10th.

The bill, proposed by the Liberals, seeks to allocate funds for various programs, including the First Nations child and family services program and compensation for Quebec's services for asylum seekers. However, the path to this vote has been anything but smooth. Parliament has been in a deadlock for months as Conservatives have been pressing the Liberals to release documents related to alleged misspending on a green-tech fund.

In a surprising move last week, Speaker Greg Fergus ruled to pause the ongoing privilege debate, allowing the spending bill vote to proceed. This decision underscores the urgency and importance of the bill, which includes $561 million for the Department of National Defence's Canadian multi-mission aircraft project.

Government House leader Karina Gould expressed cautious optimism, stating, "I'm looking forward to having the vote. There's a lot of really good things in there for Canadians, and it's important we get this done."

The outcome of this vote will have significant implications for various government programs and services, making it a pivotal moment for Canadian politics.
