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.


Radio-Canada has an updated article online that states the four murders were ordered by Jonathan Massari.

Thanks anti, this is big. Guy Dion charged with the murders of the Falduto brothers is a local fire chief !

"We are really surprised to hear news like this," said Mayor of Saint-Jude Yves de Bellefeuille, in a telephone interview. We did not expect that. Guy Dion, we've known him for a long time, he was a pretty "low profile" guy. But it proves that you never really know the people you think you know."

Guy Dion was immediately suspended on pay and the municipality indicated that she would soon be appointing an Acting Fire Chief.

After last weeks arrests, that didn't take long. I'd expect some of those arrested to start talking pretty quickly out of fear.

You've got to wonder, with the recent news from last week... why was he keeping up with the regular routines like the gym? Wouldn't you be in hiding? No hired bodyguard? Why so sloppy?

Keeps suprising me too. Either he didn't expect it or he chose to accept his fate. Or perhaps he didn't want to raise any suspicion or appear weak.

Were the Falduto brothers the shooters for the Scoppas in the Sollecito and Giordano hits, then double -crossed and killed themselves by the Scoppas? Seems like they were clearly Scoppa crew members...

bodyguards are no deterrents, just potential collateral damage. Cuntrera's bodyguard was blown away with the old man. Ducarme Joseph's gunned down in the Flawnego hit. Andrew went like his bro, Magi and Ducarme Joseph who all knew they were targeted and living on borrowed time. yet they all chose to stick around and go through their regular routines. fascinating mindset that civilians can't understand. there's one more Scoppa brother left. hope he wasn't involved in any of this.

no, Scarfo and Massari were on that hit. Falduto bros were eliminated because of their loyalty to the Sicilians and the territory they controlled (part of RDP)

At some point Andrew seemed to be have been close to becoming the new leader of the Montreal Mafia, until he was incarcerated. Things might've been very different for Leonardo Rizzuto and Stefano Sollecito had they not been arrested when their lives were in danger. Instead the elder Sollecito and Giordano were killed as interim leaders, but the real leaders were safe behind bars. You'd almost think the police are on the Sicilians' side.

Giordano was Frank Arcadi's guy, who was also behind bars at the time.

Yeah, who would've thought Compare Franco would be the last man standing of the old guard. He made so many enemies he would've been the first to go had he not been behind bars too.

The Falduto surname is found most among Italians whose ancestry is from Calabria but is common enough that people in Lombardia, Lazio, Piemonte, Sicily, and Toscana -- among other regions -- also bear that surname. Do you happen to know whether there is definitive information that the Falduto brothers had Calabrian ancestry?

I'm fairly certain Lorenzo Giordano's mother (last name: Scrufari) descended from Calabria. Did his father as well?

Once again the media strikes. They pitch this whole thing as a Sicilian vs Calabrian rivalry when it's not that simple.

Falduto are from Reggio Calabria
Giordano also from Reggio Calabria
Sollecito from Bari
Spagnolo from Cattolica Eraclea
Scoppa is from Catanzaro region

Clearly this isn't a sicilian vs calabrian cell war but rather a battle for turf between different clans which have italian canadian leaders from various regions in italy. The Scoppa brothers were at odds with similarly aged gangsters left from the old rizzuto clan.

Andrew Scoppa, the former head of the Montreal Mafia who was shot in the head yesterday morning, was about to leave the country and had already bought his plane ticket abroad.
