I was wondering if you have ever done any comparison between the total number of mafia related murders in Canada/or each specific city vs. the number of murders overall in Canada/each specific city?

Correct me if I'm wrong but I was under the impression that Canada does not have very many murders each year, and of those murders very few are done with a gun.

So roughly 10-15% were mob related?

The name of the victim has not been released because not all members of the extended family have been notfied -- see https://twitter.com/HamiltonPolice/stat ... 6273806336.

Seems that the victim is not Giacomo Luppino's son Rocco -- see Hamilton Police Service release to which I've linked below.

I’ve seen it called a mafia hit on social media. If that is the case, yes, I think “Buffalo” is involved— maybe a move against. However, at this point there is nothing but rumors that indicate the mob was involve. I think that is the reason it has its own thread right now.

Exactly, NickleCity. This murder could be a result of a domestic conflict. I believe that Rocco Luppino and his wife owned the residence but that the victim was the one living in it. As I speculated on Gangster BB, the victim could be Rocco's son Vincenzo, based on the age of the victim.

Just Speculation**
Could it be revenge for Angelo Musitano.
Perhaps two retaliation hits in Canada in two weeks

Could someone post the full story here? is that the site is blocked in my country.
