 Welcome to the original gangsters podcast. I'm your host Scott Bernstein Today we're going to go back up to the great white north and talk about what's going on there this kind of war within a war That's erupted over the last 18 months and it's really hitting a crescendo right now between the Hell's Angels and the Rezoodle mob This is going to be more of kind of a analytical quick hitter Not necessarily news, but I spent the last couple weeks talking to my sources and getting you know government documents sent to me and talking to authorities up in Montreal and I Am going to throw out three names of what I'm being told and what I'm going to Categorize as X factors three guys that come from the Rezoodle mob and the traditional Montreal mafia Three X factors that I'm told could play a difference in who wins this war who who's the victor Who who falls to defeat whether it's the Rezoodle mob or the Hell's Angels and Marty Robert the boss of the Hell's Angels and in Montreal who's Making a big power play here and trying to take over kind of all of Canada's rackets Become the boss of bosses and these three guys Play a big role and if he's gonna be successful and all three of these guys know Marty Robert have personal friendship with him have a business relationship with him and I think It remains to be seen if They're gonna back him or they get a kind of Double back and and get behind the Rezoodle. So the three names are David E Baldy Barbario who we've talked about the last about month or so and Then an old-school guy that if you've been following Montreal Over the last couple decades you probably heard of the Antonio Petro-Tantonio aka Tony Suzuki he's about 60 years old dates all the way back to old man view the Rezoodle and a guy that is very networked in to Elicit activity around the globe his name popped up in the El Chapo trial in New York One of the biggest Constitutions in US history and El Chapo You know I'm this People at that trial made reference to Tony Suzuki as being the the point man for not just Wholesale narcotics trafficking on the Rezoodle end in Quebec But also the guy that the Sunnilow cartel did all their business with there and then finally a Kind of like Baldy Barbario a younger guy from the kind of the younger generation is in his 40s Joey Gator aka Giuseppe Vuccarazzo and He's 48 Baldy Barbario is is 44 and all three of these guys are Big time well, I should say two of them are big time up-and-comers and then Tony Suzuki Tony Suzuki's the OG all three of them have survived Murder contracts on their head Throughout this decade and a half ordeal that I've coined the you know the great Canadian mafia war that erupted after Vita Rezoodo the The most legendary mafia done in Canadian history had to go surf some prison time in the United States and this whole family imploded From within and then all of a sudden, you know the the shark smell blood and people that had once been allies are now enemies Takes us to the Hells Angels who had always been on very good terms and had a strong business ties with the Rezoodos For the last 30 plus years and then at some point the last year and a half that relationship Frayed and it looks like they are now adversaries Joey Gator and Tony Suzuki both attended Marty Robert's wedding, which was a big flashy affair about five years ago. He married a underworld princess Annie Arbic whose mom was the Queen Pan in Quebec in terms of wholesale marijuana And it was a glitzy affair. You had luminaries from all these different criminal factions that that came to celebrate Marty Robert's wedding and the representatives from The Rezoodos was Tony Suzuki and Joey Gator Baldy Barberio were here in you know Could be the top guy on the street right now for the Rezoodos running day-to-day activity the street boss Came up under ponytail to Vito Who was assassinated in prison? Sinai poisoning, but Baldy Barberio is a is a player and there were rumors Unfounded at this point Not confirmed, but there were rumors that if chit del basso who It looks like Joint forces with Marty Robert and the Hell's Angels to try to take out Vito Rezoodo's son and successor Leonardo Rezoodo back in a Highway assassination attempt back in the spring that was unsuccessful The rumors were that if that had been successful and chit del basso had removed Vito Vito Leonardo Rezoodo from power that Baldy Barberio was going to jump on board With chit and Marty Robert. So where he stands right now. I don't know but Taking his temperature, uh, you know less than a year ago talking to these sources. It looks like he was open to to joining Marty Robert Um, Tony Suzuki, we know that he's been involved in insurgents of the past In in in the timeline of this current mob war back in the late 2000s early 2010s he had thrown his lot in with Salvatore salvia ironworker montaña the banano Crime family boss that got deported from new york to canada took advantage or try to take advantage of when Vito Rezoodo went to prison and then you know kind of rallied some of Vito's former allies into this insurrection that Fell apart and there was like as the Rezoodo crime family was A cratering so was this this insurgent faction and montana ended up dead in 2011 but in the Hours before montana died. He was meeting with Tony Suzuki. So we know that Tony Suzuki has a past history of being willing to go against the Rezoodo's and then joey gator although there is no There hasn't been any rumors or any situations brought up in court court filings and court documents the way that We have when it comes to Baldy Barbario and Tony Suzuki um Joey Gator is one of these guys he's worked very closely with the Hell's Angels over the last 20 years 25 years. He's a guy that is kind of a overseer at You know boots on the ground at the the street level. He's a guy that I've been told overseas a series of kind of jb mobs that move drugs and guns for the Rezoodo's But for years they were doing it with the Hell's Angels. So Joey Gator was uh, you got a day-to-day basis dealing with Hell's Angels so You know, he's a he's 48 years old Barbario is 44. These are young guys that have a lot of time left Uh, you know in the uh in the underworld Leonardo Rezoodo is only 50 53 marty roberos 49. So these are all relatively younger guys And uh, it should be really interesting to see where those three guys Land in this in this conflict um So, you know, those are my three x factors to look forward to in 2024 who could play a big role and who wins this Wins this war between the Hell's Angels and the Montreal mafia Baldy Balbario Tony Suzuki and Joey Gator That's my analysis and I will be giving you more information and analysis from what's going on up in canada and the great white north with this ever-evolving bloodshed that that seems to be happening on a Weekly basis at 15 years after it started Uh, so we'll keep you updated. Um for og pot. I'm scott burnstein
