Welcome to the second episode in our Canada Binge series. Tonight, we’re covering a surprisingly unknown case. The Quebec Biker Wars. A turf war between the Hells Angels, and rival clubs, Rock Machine and Bandidos. It also involves the Quebec Mafia.

This starts off when the leaders of the Montreal Hell’s Angels chapter offed leaders of northern Hell’s Angels chapters. The Montreal leaders were sent to prison for the murders, and Montreal’s Hell’s Angels chapter was left in disarray, and had lost the respect of literally all of he other Hell’s Angels chapters.

Enter Maurice Boucher, who was tasked with putting te club back together and regaining the respect of the Hell’s Angels again. He meticulously did over the years, and soon, they were a force to be reckoned with once again. A new club had sprung up from the ashes of Hell’s Angels, called Rock Machine. They were led by Salvatore Cazzetta, a former Hell’s Angels member who had defected. Cazzetta also had ties to the Quebec Mafia, so Rock Machine was protected. But, Cazzetta was arrested as a drug supplier, which left Rock Machine vulnerable.

What happened next was a multi year long war that made what the NYC mafia did during prohibition seem tame by comparison. So, join us as we tell this story that is full of strategy, subterfuge, drugs, violence, politics, and Harleys! Why this story isn’t well known is beyond me, but we hope you liked this story as much as we did.
