A group of five recently took over organized crime activities in Montreal after the murder of aspiring leader Andrea Andrew Scoppa in October, ...At the head of the group would be Leonardo Rizzuto and Stefano Sollecito.
They will probably never be as succesful without a strong leader Rizzuto and Sollecito don't have the charisma and respect Vito had, that's why the Scoppa and others began to rebel. We have to see where the Mirarchi clan stands.The group would be fairly independent of other mafia clans and bikers, but would have strong support from a mafia family in Ontario and may still enjoy support, including some influential members of the Hells Angels of Trois-Rivières.
How exactly did the Mirarchi "clan" and the Scoppa "clan" become clans without Vittorio Mirarchi's Calabrian father and Andrew Scoppa's Calabrian father respectively being around?
Do you think Vittorio Mirarchi is going to determine the direction of the Montreal Mafia because he has Calabrian ancestry? The high-ranking Bonanno soldier Moreno Gallo had Calabrian ancestry, and he was the right hand of Jos Di Maulo, who did not have ancestry from Calabria (Maria Mourani's book about his daughter confirms he had ancestry from Montorio dei Frentani in Molise).
Or is Mirarchi going to be killed if he had even the slightest involvement in the high-profile murders of Nick Rizzuto Sr., Paolo Renda, and Agostino Cuntrera? Between Raynald Desjardins and Mirarchi, isn't Desardins really the more powerful of the two? I mean, Desjardins was the leader of le clan calabrais, and Mirarchi was his mentee. If Desjardins and Montagna didn't agree to work with each other, would Montagna have made moves?
