Last November, Dyson White pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the September 2015 shooting.

Schmeikal, 34, was shot and his body was dumped in the middle of a Forest Lawn street.

According to Alberta Justice, a judge handed White, 39, his sentence on Friday. With credit for time already served, he has a little more than two years remaining on his sentence.

Another man, Jerry Cody Goodeagle, pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in the case and was sentenced in February to life in prison with no chance of parole for 13 years.
