The term "Canadian Mafia" refers to organized crime groups operating in Canada, primarily involved in drug trafficking, extortion, and money laundering. These groups often have connections to larger criminal organizations, such as the Italian Mafia and Hells Angels, and are known for their influence in various provinces, particularly in Ontario and Quebec. One of the most notable factions is the Calabrian 'Ndrangheta, which has established a significant presence in Canada. Law enforcement agencies, including the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), actively work to combat these criminal networks through investigations and operations aimed at dismantling their activities and reducing their impact on society.
