what a confusing character,no doubt a member of the 'ndrangheta in toronto but to be constantly named as the #1 most powerful member in all of toronto is a stretch i think.
all of his arrests since 1992 have been for violating his lifetime parole.not even when his son was arrested in the 2000's did he get mentioned or arrested aside from the fact that he was his father.
now this could all be because he is some overlord of all 'ndrangheta in GTA but even the commissos have been arrested over the years and there contacts in calabria go to the top power structure of the 'ndrangheta in italy.28 years is a long time even in canada to not be mixed up in something.
demaria has also long been suspected of being the leader of one of the factions of 'ndrangheta in toronto who backed the desjardins/dimaulo/devito alliance that tried to overthrow the rizzuto's.
unrelated to thread or maybe it is but many books and articles have stated that vittorio mirarchi had backing of a 'ndrangheta group in toronto/woodbridge but no specific group or member has ever been mentioned.
demaria,commisso,figliomeni,bruzzese???
His brother Joe DeMaria arrested in Italy in August, seems to be working with/for the Figliomeni brothers. No idea if Jimmy is deported the Italians will arrest him, but I wouldn't be suprised.
