good catch ciment about the robert and scoppa meeting in mexico, i had forgot about that. most articles from 2019 do state that most criminals or groups in quebec gravitate towards either thre rizzuto-sollecito or HA/ martin robert so that makes sense. we will have to see when further info comes out of these indictments. the connections to the illegal dumpong on kanesatake reserve would also steer roberto scoppa to being allied with robert as that reserve is fully martin robert territory.
It can be forgiven saying Mexico, as this coke did come from or at least through Mexico. It is entirely possible he met with Mexicans in Colombia. The thing is the Mexicans are IN Canada. It's coming over land. It's possible Robert has the most reliable "open door" in Canada at the moment with the Indian border. Maybe he had to shore up supply. But the language they used was significant. They said wholesaler, not importer.
