None of the allegations in the report have been tested in court.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEach of these seven families in Canada would be active in drug trafficking; extortion, only among members of the Italian community; gambling; and the making and marketing of forged material. Many of them have reinvested the illegally obtained money in businesses, including bars and restaurants, not only in downtown Toronto but especially in Woodbridge, which is the new Italian quarter.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The clans are alleged to be a senior part of the \u2019Ndrangheta, the proper name of the Mafia formed in the southern Italian region of Calabria, which is similar to the better known Cosa Nostra of Sicily.<\/p>\n<p>Canada is so pervasive within the \u2019Ndrangheta that when a gangster in Calabria speaks of \u201cAmerica,\u201d he really means Canada, the report says.<\/p>\n<p>The Italian authorities allege that the seven primary \u2019Ndrangheta families in the Toronto area are led by:<\/p>\n<p>Vincenzo Tavernese, 44, of Thornhill;<br>Cosimo Figliomeni, 45, of Vaughan;<br>Antonio Coluccio, 40, of Richmond Hill;<br>Cosimo Commisso, of Toronto;<br>Angelino Figliomeni, 47, of Woodbridge;<br>Vincenzo \u201cJimmy\u201d DeMaria, 56, of Mississauga; and<br>Domenic Ruso, 65, of Brampton.<br>Only two of the men face criminal charges.<\/p>\n<p>Italian authorities charged Mr. Tavernese \u2014 along with 304 others \u2014 on July 13 as part of the two-year probe codenamed Operazione Crimini. Mr. Tavernese was visiting Italy at the time. He is charged with Mafia association and possessing and carrying weapons in public places.<\/p>\n<p>An arrest warrant was also issued against Mr. Coluccio, who left Canada for Italy with his Canadian wife and children in July after losing his bid to immigrate here. He was not found by police during the pre-dawn raids, however, and is considered a fugitive. He faces a charge of Mafia association.<\/p>\n<p>Although named as mobsters by Italian authorities, no charges were filed against the remaining men who \u201cnormally reside in Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>One of the men named in it strongly dismissed the information as unreliable and inaccurate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cItaly is not a democracy anymore. It is a police state like Iran,\u201d Mr. Commisso told the Post. \u201cThey think anything and everything is possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He asked, if there was evidence of anyone committing crimes, why are there not charges against them here?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have nothing to do with engaging in any illegal activity. The police have investigated me for the past 40 years. If I was dealing in drugs \u2013 or anything else \u2013 they would know. It is offensive to me to think that I would do anything like that.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf somebody commits a crime, so be it. Charge me and if I am guilty I will pay. I always take the consequence of my actions. I don\u2019t blame nobody for my actions. I have an extensive criminal record. I did my time. I came out \u2013 21 years ago \u2013 1989. I did my 10 years of parole with success,\u201d he said, adding he has since turned his life around. The Italian report did not even provide his date of birth or address.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey can say anything they want to say. I know who I am and know what I am and my family is what is important to me and my family knows who I am and what I am,\u201d Mr. Commisso said.<\/p>\n<p>He denied being a boss of any group.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not even boss of my house. My wife is the boss of my house,\u201d he said. \u201cI think being Italian makes news.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Messages left for Mr. DeMaria and Mr. Ruso were not returned, yesterday. The other men could not be reached for comment.<\/p>\n<p>The Italian probe targeted the \u2019Ndrangheta as it has eclipsed Sicily\u2019s Cosa Nostra as Italy\u2019s most powerful and richest Mafia organization, dominating Europe\u2019s drug trade. Along with the July arrests, guns, drugs, goods and property worth tens of millions of Euros were seized in Italy.<\/p>\n<p>The Italian probe also alleged the \u2019Ndrangheta\u2019s extensive Canadian connections after police in Italy monitored calls from Canadian telephones, watched visits to Italy by Canadian residents, accessed Canadian Internet accounts and swapped information with the RCMP, according to the report.<\/p>\n<p>The importance of Canada is highlighted in the 2,656-page prosecutors\u2019 report signed by six magistrates in Reggio Calabria in southern Italy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cParticularly substantial and significant results [of the investigation] are the elements gathered showing the presence of the \u2019Ndrangheta in Canadian territory,\u201d the prosecutors write, describing \u201can unbreakable umbilical cord\u201d between mafiosi in Canada and Italy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe character of the Mafia,\u201d they write, \u201ctranscends international borders.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Canada is so endemic to the \u2019Ndrangheta that when a gangster in Calabria speaks of \u201cAmerica,\u201d he really means Canada, the report says.<\/p>\n<p>The alleged tight bonds between suspects in Italy and Canada are shown by at least 40 people named in the report being either Canadian citizens, current or former residents of Canada, or are named as representatives of the \u201cCanadian cell,\u201d according to the Post\u2019s analysis of the four-volume report.<\/p>\n<p>Among those arrested in the July sweep, for instance, was Rocco Mazzaferro, 70, a Canadian citizen who returned to Italy in 2003, when his wife died, after living in Canada for 20 years. He faces a charge of Mafia association.<\/p>\n<p>Also singled out by prosecutors \u2013 although not charged \u2013 is Carmine Verduci, 53, of Woodbridge, Ont., alleged to be the group\u2019s transatlantic messenger: He \u201chad the task of traveling between Italy and Canada, acting as a carrier of news between the Italian group and the Canadians.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It was the presence of Mr. Verduci at an \u2018Ndrangheta meeting on Feb. 12, 2008, where the rescheduling of debts was discussed, authorities allege, that first tipped investigators to the Canadian connection.<\/p>\n<p>From there, police started noticing suspects from Toronto popping up at various summits, meetings and in telephone conversations, according to the report.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAt the meetings of this group, were, in many cases, members of the Canadian cell,\u201d prosecutors write. Canadian members \u201calternate between attending meetings, travelling between Canada and Calabria, and, when they can\u2019t attend, are kept informed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Italian investigators made at least two trips to Canada during their probe, meeting with members of the RCMP.<\/p>\n<p>That the Canadian connection was allegedly key to building the \u2018Ndrangheta\u2019s wealth and influence.<\/p>\n<p>It is alleged that the probe\u2019s wiretaps caught the boss of one of Italy\u2019s dominant Mafia families bragging that his clan was the first to import and sell drugs in North America, courtesy of his kin in Canada.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn the 1970s, a boom in worldwide drug use was sensed by different clans in the \u2019Ndrangheta who began converting some of their traditional activities into kidnapping, extortion and drug trafficking,\u201d prosecutors write, describing the history behind its global emergence. That sparked a power struggle between older members opposed to the drug trade and younger ones who craved the wealth it brought.<\/p>\n<p>In Siderno, a town on the southern coastal plains of Italy, a new boss of the Commisso clan quickly embraced the drug trade and what became known as the Siderno Group gained a reputation as being the best.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOnce in charge, [the new boss] took over the direction of the illegal activities of the gang, made up of powerful relatives and friends of the \u2018Siderno Group of Crime,\u2019 including one by his cousin, Rocco Remo Commisso, who initiated a continuous flow of cocaine trafficking to Toronto, using supply channels from Argentina,\u201d the prosecutor\u2019s report says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs such, the \u2018families\u2019 present in Canada began their climb to the top of the criminal world, turning themselves very slowly into the point group for those in Calabria interested in selling drugs,\u201d says the report. (Rocco Remo Commisso has, for decades, been named as a part of the mob in Canada and is a brother of Cosimo Commisso.)<\/p>\n<p>The clans in Italy kept abreast of news in Canada through visits and phone calls, prosecutors write.<\/p>\n<p>When men from Canada visited Giuseppe \u201cThe Master\u201d Commisso, 63, at his laundromat in downtown Siderno, the men caught up on mob gossip, talking at length without knowing that police were recording them, according to the report.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn Toronto there are nine of us,\u201d said a Canadian man, referring to nine different locali or \u201clocals,\u201d each being a separate \u2019Ndrangheta branch, according to prosecutors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Master\u201d then said there are 96 locali in Siderno, forming a tangled web that sometimes requires him to \u201cbreak balls\u201d to maintain order.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not like in Toronto,\u201d said the visitor.<\/p>\n<p>But later, according to authorities, the men acknowledge that life is getting harder in Toronto as police become more aware of their activities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBit by bit they know all our moves,\u201d the Canadian said, complaining about recent media coverage, according to prosecutors.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey have to be careful in Toronto,\u201d agreed \u201cThe Master,\u201d mentioning the arrest of Vincenzo \u201cJimmy\u201d DeMaria, an accused Toronto Mafia boss on lifetime parole for second-degree murder who was sent back to prison last year for suspected parole violations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, he was released, but he was released with [parole] obligations\u2026 and now they\u2019ve caught him again, and do you know why? Because they control him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe let himself be seen and he was arrested.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A colleague replied: \u201cNo!\u2026 Even there in Toronto?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In other conversations, Italian prosecutors say, the men outlined how Canada is used as a place to hide.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHere in Canada he didn\u2019t do anything,\u201d one says of a colleague who moved to Canada. \u201cBecause he had emigrated here, Canada couldn\u2019t do anything\u2026 The law is looking for you in Italy, but you emigrated here.\u201d He added that once you get a Canadian passport, it is difficult to be forced to leave.<\/p>\n<p>In their report, Italian prosecutors also state that the two main centres of Mafia power in Canada are Toronto and Montreal, with the Calabrian \u2019Ndrangheta prevailing in Toronto and the Sicilian Costa Nostra in Montreal.<\/p>\n<p>The two groups, however, often worked together. Such was the case, authorities say, with another key figure in the Italian case: Carmelo Bruzzese, 61, of Siderno who \u201chad, in Canada, a wide circle of family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Bruzzese, police earlier alleged, had \u201cdeep connections\u201d with Vito Rizzuto, the Mafia boss from Montreal. Mr. Bruzzese spoke regularly with Rizzuto\u2019s top men in Montreal and was a trusted partner in attempted public works projects in Italy, authorities said.<\/p>\n<p>The entire \u201ccomplex criminal organization\u201d in Canada, the July report says, fell under the influence of Rizzuto, placing the Montreal man as something of a global super boss, at least until his arrest in 2004.<\/p>\n<p>Source: nationalpost<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anti-Mafia prosecutors in Italy probing a powerful international crime network say they have uncovered the new face of the Mafia in Toronto<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":220,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24,16],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>A New Mafia: Crime families ruling Toronto, Italy alleges | Mafia Today - Your Source for Mafia &amp;
