Andre Cedilot on Bloodlines

By Andre Cedilot / La Presse

This book exposes the critical and unquestionable role of the Canadian mafia in drug trafficking and money laundering on a global scale. The Caruana-Cuntrera epitomize the criminal organization that takes advantage of weak laws and lack of political will to support law-enforcement agencies in their fight against organized crime.

Like any crime syndicate, the Caruana Cuntrera will carry on ad expand their activities - licit and illicit - until they are stopped. For a century, the Cosa Nostra has boasted about their adaptability, and surely this explains the success of Alfonso Caruana and his acolytes in Canada and around the world. In the telling of this story, Lee Lamothe and Antonio Nicaso have rendered a major achievement and an important public service."
