calabrians are enough strong in canada, but i'm right they are not as strong as people thing, sicilians are underrated for example, especially in toronto area


It's related to where they immigrated to in Canada. Most Sicilians from Catolica Eraclea/Siculiana went to Montreal and most Calabrians from Siderno went to Toronto. That is why each have a stronghold in their respective areas.

Neither are underrated. Your talking about two power houses with lots of money. The only differences today is the the Calabrians have outgrown the Sicilians but it does not mean that the Sicilians have become marginalized. Because of the war in Montreal that has lingered for several years, the Sicilians have lost some ground in Montreal and have had to ally with other criminal groups whom are now challenging the Calabrians in the Greater Toronto Area.
This is my outlook of what is going on.
