I'll add Joe Di Maulo. The guy must have known that his life was in danger when Rizzuto was back in town yet he carried himself like it was business as usual instead of hiding out or using bodyguards. It seems like he had already accepted his fate, a true mafioso.
But why no attempt to whack Rizzuto? Why simply waiting for death? Did he feel guilty for slaughtering his relatives (just joking) or didn't he have enough manpower? It's strange, they had almost won, why give up only because of Vito's return, the only flaw in the plan was the falling-out between Desjardins and Montagna.
By the time Rizzuto returned to Montreal the organized crime landscape was in disarray and Di Maulo was apparantly not in a position to do anything about it. They had their change and fucked up. People on the sidelines had seen that they were incapable to rule and were eager to switch back to Rizzuto (my speculation). After Desjardins was imprisoned Di Maulo was basically on his own and now it was Rizzuto's turn to strike back. It was always a onesided conflict.
