There are others who deserve this title more than I do, but thanks anyway.

What makes Montreal so interesting for me is that they are still living in the past. Montreal is like New York in the 1980s. The so called Fabulous Fourteen is the equivalent of New York's Concrete Club of the 1980s that was headed by Paul Castellano just as Nick Rizzuto headed the Fabulous Fourteen. Both as we know were killed by renegade factions. Also, why I think it's the 1980s for Montreal is because the writings are on the wall. There are going to be more major arrests and blows to the Montreal Mafia in the years to come. The next ten years might become extremely interesting for us mobwatchers. I'm not sure If I will be following it all the way, but who knows.
