There are so many varied splintered independent gangs and ethnicities active up there, that it's nearly impossible to call it "organized" crime lol.
Thats another reason why props should be given to Vito Rizzuto for having had the tenacity and savvy to be able to negotiate with the myriad of gangsters, drug dealers, and far-flung gangs in Canada.
With his demise we see the result. I don't think LE or the general populous realize or give Vito enough credit for his efforts. Because although he may have been what he was, a mafioso to the core. He was also a tactician and very intelligent guy. And a "Politician" albeit a mob politician to have had the ability to "speak" everyones language and "reach" agreeable compromises with all factions.
He pretty much kept violence to a minimum during his tenure.
We now see the true chaos that COULD have been, had a Vito Rizzuto not been at the helm as he was.
Well put ! Problem is l.e doesn't realize but they are better off having someone like Rizzuto in control instead of all these factions fighting . If I remember he even made a similar comment to police before he was extradited . It's the same as New York , whether the police and politicians like it or not they need the 5 families , without them you'd have complete chaos all over the place .
