Project Clemenza was initiated by the RCMP in 2010 in order to observe and collect intelligence on the rising new mafia generation members, following the take down of Project Colisée, which main target was the upper administration of the Rizzuto organization in November 2006.

Both links take me two a West Gazette public transportation article which has no relation to LCN.
Am I the only one experiencing this issue?

There was speculation that both incidents were connected because of the timeframe but I don't think any connection was ever established.

It was back in 2007, very close to the time Izzi was killed. But I didn't list it because he was only wounded.

You're forgetting several hits in the US. If we're talking since Zizzo's disappearance...


April 2007 - Lucchese soldier Frank Lagano shot and killed.

June 2007 - Genovese soldier Rudolph "Rudy" Izzi shot and killed.

July 2008 - Bonanno associate Frank Fresca was shot and killed.

July 2009 - Bonanno soldier Anthony Seccifico shot and killed.

June 2010 - Philadelphia associate Rocco Maniscalco shot and killed.

December 2012 - Philadelphia associate Gino DiPietro shot and killed.


I've left out ones where people were only wounded or it was of a personal nature and not strictly mob related.
Yes, I don't know how I could forget about the DiPietro hit, it was so clumsily done, that forgetting it should be unlikely :) About the others, I didn't know, thanks for the information, I should have followed the news more then...But still, it's only few, while in Canada the mafia is still like "from the old movies", they still could make films based on real events there, without even having to add many fictional details.

Was the hit on Gosselin part of the payback by Vito for killing Nick and other Rizzuto relatives and allies? Since Gosselin was associated with Desjardins, who was one of the main responsible...But not even 1 Cosa Nostra soldier among the defendants, don't ethnic Italian gangsters pull the trigger at all anymore, in Canada? I thought there was no lack of shooters in the mafia, since Canada (Montreal especially) seems the last place left where the Cosa Nostra still acts like they were in the 50s, even in Sicily they seem to be more low-profile in the last years, concerning the violence aspect. In the USA, apart from the Zizzo disappearance in 2006 and the Meldish hit in 2013, they haven't killed anymore I think.

Now you see why we follow Montreal and Toronto. It's been like this forever with these weak sentences. It's why it's like the 70's there.

And it's only fixing to get even worse.

Weak enterprise crime laws and no guilt by association.

No wonder they commit so many murders, sentences are disgusting.
