In fact, the article didnt mention em at all....

English version of the same article

https://www.en24.news/2019/09/more-flourishing-in-free-trade.html

Great article..

Some quotes from Renaud’s article in the Lapresse.

« Six years after the death of Vito Rizzuto, the Montreal mafia has lost its supremacy at the hands of the Hells Angels. »

« The Hells Angels have control in Quebec but also in Montreal. What we realize is that all other strains of organized crime are accountable to the Hells Angels, "says Chief Inspector Guy Lapointe of the Sûreté du Québec »

« Most of the mafia clans have bent their heads in front of influential Hells Angels, but they gravitate and do business around and with them. Drug importation, drug trafficking, money laundering and transportation, sports betting, fraud or recycling with cryptocurrency, prostitution, violent crime, etc. ; mafiosi and bikers exchange services between them »

What do y’all think about those quotes in the article?
How do y’all think the relation between the mafia and the hells is in the province? Will it stay like that?

in montreal italian mafia is by far more connected with politicians and businessmen than bikers, maybe they have more influence in quebec as a whole, but sure not in montreal

The bikers has changed alot from the 90s.
I wouldn’t be surpise that the bikers has as many contacts in politics now than the mafia.

But the force of the mafia is really their connections.
Because nobody is scared of the mob now in montreal.

Problem is that there is no such thing as the “mob”.

That’s the whole point of the article.

Some clans/crime families are much better off than others and thus more influential, relevant and intimidating.

Well more like the mob has changed. And theirs no more a pyramid hierarchy.

But the clans/ families are still there.

do you have some proof of connections between bikers and politicians? i've never found one, unlike the italian mafia, for that reason the mafia is by far more powerful in greater montreal

The Quebec bikers and also the Amsterdam HA are like the mafia.

Hells Angels are now gangsters and they have connections all over the world.

Well...yeah...of course...who ever thought otherwise?



It seems like that at the moment, even if I have my doubts. If that’s the case then it’s a matter of time before a new regime is formed.

They kidnapped the widow of Moreno Gallo.

Well you had the case of Boisclair and an associate of him.

The Montreal Gazette article to which I've linked below essentially piggybacks on the French-language article to which Blackmobs linked.

Woman who escaped kidnappers is a Montreal mobster's widow: report

https://montrealgazette.com/news/lo...widow-of-a-montreal-mafia-figure-report/

I didn't realize Moreno Gallo was murdered in 2013, three years to the day after Nicolo Rizzuto was killed.

They were like 5 days shy of the same when Di Maulo was gunned down.

Attempted murder in Montreal's St-Leonard district: a 34-year-old man was hit with several firearm projectiles. He was sitting in his car when the shooter burst. The murder weapon with a silencer was left on the sidewalk.

Based on the street, as well as what I think is the street number, the victim could be somehow connected to the Armenis. However, according to the white pages, there is also a Del Balso and a Sciascia living on that street.

According to a tweet by Agence QMI journalist/photographer Maxime Deland, who was at the scene, the shooting victim is an Aldo Terlizzese. Terlizzese is not known to police per Deland.

Aldo Terlizzese, un homme de 34 ans qui ne serait pas connu des policiers. Il a été atteint plusieurs fois aux bras, vraisemblablement en tentant de se protéger.

A perimeter was established and investigators and forensic identification technicians were called on site.

"We're lucky there were no casualties"

UPDATE Saturday, October 12, 2019 23:05
Experts deplore the poor response of the Montreal police to the violent shooting in a crowded restaurant on Tuesday night, which miraculously did not kill.

"Publicly, they should go out and say that is unacceptable," says Paul Laurier, former investigator of the Sûreté du Québec. [ With the published video-shock ], they should be on all the stands this weekend to say that it does not pass. "

Tuesday night, three shooters with little regard for innocent people sitting in the Resto-Café SB, in the Saint-Leonard district, have fired more than a dozen times in the direction of a man. According to our information, this is an individual linked to a street gang sector.

For the criminologist Maria Mourani, the trio of suspects performed a "very amateurish" job, and it is a "miracle" that no one has been reached as a collateral victim.

"We are lucky that there have been no victims, said Ms. Mourani, who does not see a contract performance. It seems to me rather a settling of accounts, of people who know each other. Usually, they will not shoot everywhere through the windows. They will rather be very close to the target, at close range. "

She gives as examples of "real contracts" the shootings that occurred in May in public places and targeted criminals: in Laval, where the Mafia Salvatore Scoppa had been killed, and in the Quartier DIX30 of Brossard, where the victim was Éric -Francis De Souza.

"Laval's answer was perfect. They had reacted strongly by saying that for them, it is zero tolerance for settling accounts in public, "said Maria Mourani.

"The best response is to send the message that criminals are going to be under surveillance and that they are better off being quiet [...] because if you let them go, it can open the door. replicas and a loss of control, "she adds.

Paul Laurier recalls that at the time of the biker war, where the young Daniel Desrochers had lost his life in a bomb attack, the police replica was immediate with the formation of a specialized squad.

"The pressure started to rise, we showed that there was no forgiveness for that. Today, the new generation no longer has a code of honor. And it was clearly low-level "hitmen", he lamented.

Arrêt des poursuites dans l’opération Magot-Mastiff

https://www.lapresse.ca/actualites/...suites-dans-loperation-magot-mastiff.php

Huge news, which I was alerted to by a post I just saw elsewhere.

Several law-enforcement agencies in Quebec have solved the murders of Rocco Sollecito, Lorenzo Giordano, and the two Falduto brothers.

Résolution de quatre meurtres reliés au crime organisé

https://www.sq.gouv.qc.ca/communiques/resolution-de-quatre-meurtres-relies-au-crime-organise/

According to Radio-Canada reporter Pascal Robidas,

1. the Sûreté du Québec (province's police force) has indicated that Salvatore Scoppa's murder was retaliation for his having ordered the four murders, and

2. the SQ had found the motorcycle used by two of the shooters.

I don't know when the motorcycle was found, especially in light of the fact that last month, the SQ had published photos for the first time since Sollecito was killed, including a picture of two unidentified people on the motorcycle.
