Vito Rizzuto he resumed his title sponsor of the Montreal Mafia? The question arises that since the murder of the old mafia Joe Di Maulo, November 4 in Blainville, the dead and wounded accumulate in the camp of his enemies.

The latest Gaetan Gosselin, killed with automatic weapons Tuesday night, was not a major player. But it is what it symbolized that matters. He was the breadwinner of Raynald Desjardins, suspected by police of being involved in the failed putsch against the Sicilians in 2009-2010. Even if it is not proved that the shadow of Vito Rizzuto behind this series of flat-settling is what many of our sources' argument, both in the media and police and criminal justice.

"Vito, everyone loves," told us a person well grounded in the criminal underworld. "He has taken his place and he is surrounded," said a policeman. "He is very strong. And his vengeance does not stop there, "predicted a lawyer.

Already considered criminals in the heyday of his reign, Vito Rizzuto has probably earned respect in serving his sentence without saying anything, unlike the leaders of the Bonanno clan, who are at the table. In its strongholds of Little Italy or Saint-Léonard, nobody sees, but everyone talks about it, we respectfully nicknamed Zio (uncle in Italian), like his father.

Immediately after his release, on October 5, Vito Rizzuto stayed in Toronto to measure its support and get green lights, they said. But could it be that it is rather to announce that he would take his place, he and some of our sources not considered as the godfather of the Italian Mafia in Montreal, but as the leader of the entire mafia Canada? Can we go further reflection and wonder if he even lost his only title during his long detention?

In Ontario, the Calabrian mafia is primarily, although it is mostly Sicilian Montreal. Vito Rizzuto, who was re-established in the metropolitan area, is therefore strong support who waited patiently for his return, in the shade, especially during and after the fall of the clan, sealed by the death of the patriarch Nicolo under eyes of his wife and daughter, two years ago. It is the swing of the pendulum, and the hour of revenge has come.

Since his return, major players in the mafia and organized crime have rallied to him, while others were forced to retire and sell their "activities", our sources have told us. "The more time passes, the stronger it gets," we were told.

These informants imagine evil or simply Vito Rizzuto went sunbathing in the Dominican Republic, where it would be easy for him to meet and further strengthen its position.

But if Vito Rizzuto is on track to regain his title, his situation is still fragile. According to our sources, some of his enemies were advised by police or lawyers that their lives were in danger, but they still have enough strength and support for cons-attack. The blood should flow even in Montreal. We know whether Vito Rizzuto will be officially wound in the saddle when the citizens of Little Italy and Saint-Léonard cross in the street, calling Zio.
