If they were doing it for Canada and Vito its weird why Vito was so upset!
That speaks volumes, unless Vito was just putting on a show (which I doubt).
Personally I think it was a combination of things. My cousin bought an engagement ring off Sciascia back in the early '90s. He got ripped off, to say the very least. No one misses that guy in the Bronx, that much I can tell you.
As far as Canada, I couldn't tell you. Sonny_Black is a valuable source of information on Canada. Maybe he'll come out of retirement and make a post
