Philly, NE, NJ, and chicago are basically loansharking, gambling, extortion, maybe some labor racketeering, money laundering and the occasional murder. But it seems the Mob in Canada runs without as much pressure as it does in the US. The FBI are constantly trying to bust these guys. In Canada how many cases do you hear of Joey the Ballbreaker getting 5 years on extortion charges?


After listing the various things the NorthEast mobs are involved in this is what you say about the Canadians - But it seems the Mob in Canada runs without as much pressure as it does in the US. The FBI are constantly trying to bust these guys. In Canada how many cases do you hear of Joey the Ballbreaker getting 5 years on extortion charges?- it switched from how the US LCN make money without a comparison to the Canadian equivalent to an arrest comparison between the 2. Also this - Camarel I meant more in the sense that the Canadian mafia (espeically in the GTA) holds more influence than the US. Doesn't explain what you meant. More influence in what sense? I apologize if i've missed the point entirely but i still don't understand what you're saying . Everything else you said has nothing to do with Canada imo.
