all i will say to the article about enrico foschi...is that noone on this site had that name on theit mtl mafia bingo card at all. with that being said it does not make him now a member of any clan but could he be considered an associate? i mean he has been seen 'associating' with known high level mafia leaders across 2 different clans over the last 6 years or so. foschi could be a buffer or messenger between these 2 clans. there has been mention of davide barberio retaining a connection to the mirarchi clan, foschi and barberio were neighbors for 7 years so they were known to each other. i dont think this scenario is far fetched, not all mafia decisions and communications are done pin-to-pin with phones and mirarchi et al would be less likely to use p2p phones after the rcmp had cracked said tech during montagna murder investigation, making the position of an unknown, trusted buffer/messenger with no criminal record important.
now unless some on here are building historical timelines/charts of whom controlled what territory over the years in montreal, the question of if little italy was controlled by the scoppas is irrelevant today. both as we all know are dead and neither of andreas or salvatores cells have continued on in positions of power or territorial leaders. most all recent articles and reports state mirarchi controls directly or through associates/cell members territory in st leonard and little italy. is it total control? i doubt it, like most all territory in greater mtl it is shared amongst other crime groups. also important to remember since 2023 into 2024 most articles claim mirarchi is spending more time in toronto area related to cocaine importation.
As far as being off the radar....You could have said the same about Valiquette.... it's still not clear to me what drug territory he was beefing with Dejasrdins over...
For too long there was this assumption, that we knew all the guys, because it was the whatever...19 Bonnano guys that we had names for. But to me... those guys were part of an era that had come and gone. Along with the Cotronis.
Montreal is a whole city, not another neighborhood. It really is closer to something Like Rome or Eastern Sicily. Or maybe Europe in general.
