That's what I was confused about. You made it seem like the Bonanno's controlled the Montreal Mob.
I don't make it seem, it is an established fact that for half a century the Montreal Mob answered to the Bonannos, which is corroborated by about every source available. Montagna tried to re-establish those connections. Traditionally speaking, the Bonannos had the authority to depose the Rizzutos, whether or not they still had influence in Montreal.
I also think that due to the current state of affairs, no tributes are being sent to New York. And I also think there's truth in that Sciascia's murder severed ties between the Rizzutos and New York.
He's been going strong in prison from what I hear.
I hope you don't base that on that New York Post article.
