The notorious public inquiry of Quebec has finally gotten a peek into the dark side of how the Italian Mafia controlled public by using muscle for maintaining their supremacy on the construction industry of Montreal.

It was testified today at the inquiry that the family used pressure of death threats for squeezing out their interests from companies during the competition bid for work against members of the city’s construction cartel. The testimony was made by an out-of-town construction owner on Thursday which clearly asserted that he received multiple threats on a phone call for bidding on contracts in Montreal.

The Quebec City man, Martin Carrier, alleged in front of the commission that the first phone call he received was made to his home in 2004. He explained that his daughter answered the phone and passed it to him. He elaborated that a man with a heavy Italian accent warned him of serious consequences if he did not stop working in the city, in the first of two similar phone calls Carrier received. Carrier explained that he tried to ask who was he, but it impelled a curt reply saying “never mind who I am,” “Because the next time you won’t be walking away from here…Thank you and have a nice day.”

Carrier went on stated that he reported the first phone call to local police, and RCMP later traced the call and told him that they’d recorded that call. It was confirmed that the caller was Francesco Del Balso, i.e. the senior-most member of the Rizzuto crime family. The tape was played at the inquiry.
