Synopsis
Unbeknownst to most, there has always been an active circle of crime in Canada. From Al Capone, who dodged the heat during Prohobition in a network of tunnels under Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, to Montreal's Rizutto family, this updated edition of The Encyclopedia of Canadian Organized Crime profiles the most notorious criminals this country has ever seen. Reporters Peter Edwards and Michel Auger pool their research and expertise to provide a compendium of the personalities and crimes that have kept Canadian law enforcement busy for centuries.
