In the period jan.1,2016-nov.10,2017(the rough date of arrests in project o-tremens) there was an uptick in murders and arsons in both MTL and the GTA/hamilton region.
these murders and arsons stop against those allied w/ the Rizzuto faction shortly before the arrest of domenico violi et al.
after violis 2017 arrest the murders of those allied w/ Scoppa&Violi begin to go the other way culminating in andrea scoppas murder and has been quiet since.
