When looking for WEDGE ancestors in Canada

If your Wedge ancestors arrived from Canada via eastern Canada, you may find them listed with the last name of Gouin or Aucoin (both names meaning Wedge). Gouins were more prevalent in Quebec, while Aucoins were more prevalent in Prince Edward Island. Also, while under French rule, the territory of Illinois down to Louisiana was settled by many coming from those same provinces.

Good hunting.
