http://www.lapresse.ca/actualites/justic...-en-ontario.phpThe sons of a former Montreal Mafia godfather charged in Ontario. A total of nine people, including the Violi sons, were arrested for 75 offenses including fentanyl trafficking, cocaine import and trafficking, methamphetamine trafficking, arms trafficking and contraband tobacco trafficking. The arrested suspects, all of whom are residents of Ontario, had connections with members of the Bonnano family in New York, many of whom were arrested simultaneously by the FBI today.

In the press conference, the RCMP said the investigation was a result of someone up high in OC flipping. Also, said the investigation discovered renewed connections between Gambinos, Bonannos, Buffalo, GTA and Montreal.

They didn't say who flipped but if history is an indicator, he was from the USA

Globe and Mail MOLLY HAYES Nov.9,2017
In Canada, brothers Domenico and Giuseppe Violi and Giovanni Commisso are among more than 10 people facing charges, police said.
Across the border, a parallel but separate investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation into the Cosa Nostra in New York has led to the arrests of members and associates of both the Bonanno and Gambino crime families, Special Agent Michael McGarrity said Thursday.
Fourteen search warrants were executed at homes and businesses across the Greater Toronto And Hamilton Area and Montreal Thursday morning. A number of drug charges been laid in relation to the importation, exportation, and trafficking of drugs including contraband tobacco, cocaine, heroin, fentanyl and carfentanil.
Charges related to weapons trafficking, illegal gaming, extortion and money laundering have also been laid.
Undercover operations throughout the investigation saw police purchase six kilograms of fentanyl and carfentanil, they say. Police say that, after dilution, three times that volume would've made it on to the streets.
With thousands of Canadians dying from these potent drugs every year, Supt. Leather described this seizure as a "significant dent" in the market.
"How long that impact lasts, time will tell," he said.

By the Bonannos in Canada... So if I'm getting this right they still induct guys over there into their borgata which means that they are still active there. I fear some guys here may be getting a stroke. Good catch--this means the cooperating witness could be Italian-Canadian. If he is, he would likely be someone in-the-know about the conflicts over there. This may very well be the beginning of something big in terms of information gathering for us mobwatchers (or mob enthusiasts).

I read the guy who became a full-fledged member and recorderd it is an undercover agent. If it was the Feds they would have played that up. I think the associate just taped his making ceremony ala the Boston recording. If it was only audio but they also have video.

@ Sonny Black
I don't think Cotroni ever STOPPED being the Bonnanos official capo, in Montreal. The question was always, the Bonnanos exert control in Montreal through the Cotronis. The Rizzutos were in control of the heroin. Did the Cotronis control the Rizzutos, and by extension, the heroin network, and by extension, did the Bonnanos control the heroin network?
I think it's clear, the Cotronis didn't control the Rizzutos.
( I read something on another forum, about George from Canada being killed cause he killed one of Cotronis sons, then they went and hid the info, lol...)
What I see here is the Bonnanos: 1. Trying to establish their own international connections to the drug pipelines. They are doing this through the Violis, who, were described as having international reach, likely plugged into the coke network through Calabria.
2. Rectified a mistake made decades ago by actively working with the Violis, who were part of the original decina that was loyal to the Bonnanos.
3. They SENT THEIR OWN GUY UP THERE TO LOOK AFTER THEIR INTEREST!!!
Biggest reason they lost out from the get-go is they relied on initiating Sicilians to look after their interest, when the Sicilians were looking after THEIR own interest. They shoulda sent Americans up there to keep an eye on things, instead of being content with just a cut of the money.
Interesting they made a point of saying, " You answer to the Bonnano Family"..... They shoulda told Nick Rizzuto that...... Instead of allowing him to disrespect Violi, Their official representative....
4. Y'all know we gotta have a serious discussion about Buffalo now right? (How long before JustSayNo shows up???!!)
It doesn't surprise me, take this from Mafia Summit.......
“But Magaddino of Buffalo controlled the smuggling routes from Canada, and that lent him enormous weight. Within the organization schema of organized crime, the Queen City, the City of Good Neighbors, the City of Light—all chamber of commerce nicknames for Buffalo—possessed a surprising primacy.
In this sense, strictly in terms of the 1950s mob geography, the choice of Apalachin had a logic all its own. Dope was becoming more and more the new reality of the mob, and Apalachin fell squarely within the territory of Magaddino, one of the country’s leading dope smugglers. Concealed in trucks and cars rattling down from Buffalo, headed to New York City on Route 17, shipments of heroin completed the last leg of their long international journey.
So this isn't even a new thing, like at ALL.
Also, if the Violis were now in control of what's left of Buffalo, maybe they have influence on the border up there as well, this would make them pretty powerful in the drug game....
5. The guy who taped the ceremony, this is a good example of why the most successful drug cartel-clans, are based on family. Because all they really need is TRUST.
6. It's interesting, all these years, looking for made guys, large street crews-street presence, nothing. But they start tracing the drug routes and players, and Lo and behold, a Buffalo LCN operation is unearthed.......

We know that it is last years there is a war between the Sicilians and the N'drangheta in Canada do you think that if the Bonnano or other families of New York want to reintroduce in Canada Calabrais will remain nothing to say? As shown by the evidence, they get along fine, in fact they are pretty tight business wise. Ultimately they are all part of the same thing. Exactly let's wait what the undercover says at the trials to be made he had to be on the inside for a long period.

@pmac
That is a hell of a lot of assumptions of an indictment we still know little about. As if the feds would come out with all that information before legal procedures have even begun... Don't worry it's pretty big ! I've been posting for years now that everything we got since the 70's came from the north and fast ! the families along its borders my have gone under the radar but are not gone . Canada and US mob are alive and well and bringing in loads and loads of shit and making a small fortune. Not saying that they are the be all end all but it makes for a great environment for guys like this to make a living. Do not know about after 911 but before you could get anything and anyone across that border to make for a perfect situation for what these guys do or need .

So are the violis capos in the buffalo family or maybe there the bosses? Like how the boss in new england goes from providence to boston. But ive heard its hard to go across the boarder with any type of felony. I heard even if you try to go to by he Canada side of Niagara falls with a dui theyll detain you. Maybe also why non of the bonanno boss could get into montreal maybe why they sent a 44 yr old acting capo he didnt have a record. I cant see any of the bonanno bosses say that guy joe c trying to sneak into montreal they lock him up for a few years probaly. I don't think they would be crossing legally " and it's very easy to cross anyplace really but the border . I would think it would set off a red flag with guys like this crossing legal . To this day there is large scale drops not far from the border to move things . If it's summer and they use a boat they could move tons with very low risk of getting stopped " I heard of guys pulling stuff under water by jet ski and police think you are out for a ride " now 911 has raised that to a different level but still how many legal paperwork boats and other can they really pull over . They are crossing at will .

Does anyone feel like issuing an apology to me now??? Forget it. Most have their heads up their butts, but there will be a few to issue an apology. I don't buy Joe Violi is the boss, he is the underboss, while one of the Luppino brothers is the Capo of the crew, maybe Natale, but Tony is more active up there. The other Capo is Bruno. The Bonanno acting Capo, Zumma is a Mancuso loyalist.

The Violi brothers have always been with Buffalo. Todaro Jr. only gets tribute on occasion, his son is actually a real capable guy with lots of ties in Niagara and Hamilton

Thats what i think gerry. I mean i get everyone in the rizzuto crew has been purged and maybe the american went up to montreal the agents greed blinded him next thing he says your one of us keep kicking me money. Yeah, It's similar to Greg DePalma telling that fat Cuban FBI agent Jack that he was gonna get made. He was just getting his hooks in him to bleed him for all he could, so he tell him whatever he wanted to here. These bust show us that unless you're involved in that life you really don't know what's going on. There are always guys in these bust that were under the radar and high ranking who nobody knew about like that Corso guy in the Crea bust.

There are always guys in these bust that were under the radar and high ranking who nobody knew about like that Corso guy in the Crea bust. This is basically what goes on with every associate who wants to get their button. Not just with Garcia. The capos squeeze them for all the cash they can get from them and tell them that maybe one day, if they play by the rules and keep kicking money up, he might, just might get straighten out. Not only did that happen to Garcia but to Pistone aswell with Lefty and it also happens to every associate who's in the life. If you are not earning you aint getting in. And if you aren't kicking up you can't be on record and fly under the family flag. If the associate can sustain all the kicking up he will eventually be proposed as long of course, if he keeps his mouth shut, plays by the rule, keep kicking up, can do jail time and is capable of comitting violence then he might get proposed. Just my opinion.

Definitely still alive everyone, please save your opinions they arent. Kansas City is probably the most likely other than Buffalo and Detroit to be alive (as an actual crime family) out of the small families.

You have to be careful listening to these so called experts claiming certain families is defunct, these experts is leading you astray because they have family and friends in those families Also you have to remember the Feds claims that they got rid of the mob and spent loads of cash doing so . Now all these city's that once had families are all of a sudden completely rid of mob members is ridiculous . Not that is 1970 but that is what they do and for many there sons and nephews etc are involved at some point . I would say there are still many members involved in crime under the old flag of the mob . I only know about one that is supposed to be gone and when I go to see the old boys it just like it was minus the outward appearance that some of the NY and Philly guys have done. These guys just adjusted to what they can do in all aspects and are laying low like it should be. They are not flamboyant they do not live above their means and do not talk it up and that huge if you want to have a thing going . I guess we will see soon because I am sure the Feds will want to cash in on anything they can just like the men they hunt.

Good article. With these recent events, we will start to be privy to more information about these two brothers. There is some serious discussion on the forums about whether these Violis were made into an American LCN family. I've always assumed that Domenico and Giuseppe Violi were inducted into the Luppino 'ndrina once they were old enough--this would have had to happen after grandfather Giacomo died unless, as boys, they were made at a young age. It would be crazy if, just like their father, they were made into an American LCN family. Ndrangheta: In the Società Minore, the lowest tier is occupied by the giovane d'onore (youth of honor), which are descendants of Ndrangheta members and would make them honorary members by blood right. I believe the two brothers being Giacomo's grandchildren would qualify them to be Giovone d'onore at birth & become members at age of maturity if they so desire. Where people differ on this subject is whether there is such a thing as dual membership, in other words can a Ndrangheta member from Calabria or Mafia member from Sicily settling in Canada for example, also become member of the LCN ? There are those that do believe the Violi's, Luppino's and/or the Rizzuto's fall in one of those two scenarios. There are others that believe you must quit one to become the other. Taking into account either scenario, permission would be needed and it would have to benefit both parties.

It's just a coincidence. I suspect she was born in Oppido Mamertina, which is in the Calabrian province of Crotone--there are Todaros among the inhabitants of that comune, which is where her husband was born. oppido mamertina is in reggio calabria province anyway i think joe todaro was sicilian You are absolutely correct about the province; I typed "Crotone" because some Ancestry.com users are mistakenly using "Castellace, di, Oppido Mamertina, Crotone, Calabria, Italy" as the place where their ancestors might have lived. (I've been updating a family tree for the Luppino family ever since Ciment posted a link to the Luppino family tree that appears on Twitter.) My apologies to all. Luppino's birthplace has been stated in several books and articles as Castellace di Oppido Mamertina or just Oppido Mamertina. Reporter Dan Nolan's obituary about Giacomo's son Vincenzo stated that Vincenzo was "[b]orn in 1926 in Castellace (Reggio Calabria) Italy."

Witton Luu of Toronto, who was one of the five people for whom a Canada-wide warrant was issued last November (Giuseppe Violi was among those five), died two days ago while in custody at Joyceville Institution in Kingston, Ontario. No reason has been given yet as to the cause of death. This strikes me as a suspicious death, as Luu was probably transferred to Joyceville for intake assessment to determine whether he would be classified at the minimum, medium, or maximum security level. I think that Joyceville was his mother institution. Inmate dies at Joyceville Institution https://globalnews.ca/news/4392034/inmate-dies-at-joyceville-institution/The reporter updated her article. Luu’s death may have been from a suspected drug overdose. See https://globalnews.ca/news/4392034/inmate-dies-at-joyceville-institution/ once again.

Vito I'm not someone who makes anything up. When I speak about something here it's because it's the truth and I'm telling you there is Colombo activity in Canada. No thread is going to be made about it until names come out publicly just like how I never mentioned Louie Rainone being a major player in Cicero until Scott Burnstein wrote about him. I don't know anything about Giuseppe Violi and his possible Colombo affiliation but maybe there is a connection there. 10 years ago no one would of said there were Gambino or Los Angeles members in Ontario and then we learned Albert Iavarone and others were made in Los Angeles. The fact the parole board read from a file Giuseppe Violi is a Associate or member of the Bonanno or Colombo Family reveals there's some knowledge from law enforcement of the Colombo Family being involved up in Canada.
I'm never going to mislead anyone with my posts or fabricate anything like some do here no matter if you agree or disagree with me. That should be painfully obvious for some of you who were in the other thread. I go solely on facts and what we can prove.
Luankaci I'm talking about currently. That's all I'm saying about it here until names come out and to respect Vito's request to not derail this post.

its possible it was just a dinner amongst old friends. possible was a meeting amongst some criminals. possible a little from column A a little from B.
the cotronis are not still a thing though in montreal. not a crew, cell what have you. no living members have shown any active criminality in over a decade. last reference was from 2006/2008 grandkids of frank sr growing pot for export to US. they served little time was not a big bust.
i know some will disagree on here but the name cotroni carries no weight in current day montreal mafia/OC circles.
yes, the only recent case was when Jimmy Cotroni and Francesco Cotroni found themselves on the opposite ends in a criminal case where the latter is a victim after his younger brother Jimmy torched his home in the Laurentians while it was being renovated.LOL I see you posted the article Nicodemo has not been mentioned in 20 years he was arrested in 2000.

FWIW, †Pierre de Champlain ( buonanima) had described in his books that Frank Cotroni Sr. and Paolo Violi did not have a good relationship, as the former resented the latter. Vic Cotroni overlooked his own brother in favour of Violi when Vic needed to step back from his duties -- in terms of formal mafia affairs, Violi became acting captain of the Bonanno decina. Violi was incredibly competent, whereas Frank was incarcerated much of the time. Vito would know that there's a thread that ties some of Frank Sr.'s guys in Quebec to the Quebec guys with whom Domenico Violi was collaborating in relation to contraband cigarettes. It could certainly be the case that Paolo Violi's sons and Frank Cotroni Sr.'s sons did not let their fathers' poor relationship affect the decision to have dinner.
