There's no evidence of involvement of New York with the current situation, but with the preconditions absolutely. It was Massino's testimony that put Rizzuto in jail which led to chaos in the Montreal underworld. And it escalated when Montagna became involved. This is not even debatable, it is a fact.

Have he any contact with the siderno group? Have the New york familys contacts with the siderno group?


Yes, and there is evidence to support it.

Not really. The late IvyLeague (as a poster) stated that the New York families have become primarily a local enterprise.

Not even these families have much world wide sway anymore. And besides, the New York families never were as active on a global scale as let's say the 'ndrangheta.
