A two-day bail hearing has been scheduled for a Calgary man accused of helping alleged Canadian drug lord Ryan Wedding arrange the murder of an FBI informant.

The FBI says Wedding, a former Team Canada Olympic snowboarder-turned-fugitive, has now been arrested.

Allistair Chapman, 33, and nine others were arrested last year in an FBI investigation into the international drug trafficking organization allegedly run by Wedding.
