In 2006, The Fifth Estate investigated the murky world of some of Canada’s wealthiest mob bosses, linked to gangs like the Hells Angels and Montreal’s Italian Mafia.
Former co-host Bob McKeown uncovered networks of drug-dealing and violence — and the ways in which it paid off in riches and consequences for the men involved, including Vito Rizzuto, known as Montreal’s Teflon Don.
The Fifth Estate is marking its 50th year of investigative journalism. Watch “Crime Pays” hosted by Bob McKeown, and more from the show’s files, on this channel.
