So what about NY's perspective? Massino seems to have been the last Bonano boss to try and exert any sort of authority over the canadians, but they still must have some working alliance considering Rizzuto's primary income comes from smuggling drugs into the states.
It's safe to assume that there still is a relationship, but at this point the exact nature of it is only guesswork. For all we know the Bonanno crew has been rebuild under a new caporegime, but Rizzuto may now also be operating independently.
Also, what's the Bonano family called now? They changed (well, tried to, anyway) after Joe Banano published that book, but since Massino flipped I supposed they either changed names again or went back to using Bonano?
As far as I know they are still referred to (at least by the press) by their original name. It appears the names that were given to the families in the 1960s have been set in stone.
