If you read The Wolfpack book and the texts between them you can tell Robby is a much smarter professional gangster especially compared to Nick Nero. His escape did not surprise me.
That's a great question - I haven't come across anything about their involvement in Vancouver but it wouldn't surprise me if they had some sort of involvement in that city over the years
As someone who lived in Japan from 1986 to 2002 after having studied Japanese and Mandarin at university in Edmonton, I’d have to say that the yakuza don’t have a presence in Canada. I wrote an answer on Quora (searchable under my name) that received a surprising number of upvotes about the yakuza’s behaviour, including how they acted within their hierarchy at one of their offices when one senior member invited me to go to play golf with him/them while I was serving as a “Mormon” missionary (ages 21-23). I can’t rule out the possibility that they might do some business in Los Angeles and Honolulu, but I don’t know either way. They certainly wouldn’t be actually *situated* outside Japan even if they might (or may not) do any business in North America. I’ve been living in Richmond since 2003, where the Steveston neighbourhood has long been associated with Japanese in Canada (many being relocated and interned near Magrath, Alberta, during the war), and we certainly don’t see any presence of yakuza here or elsewhere in Metro Vancouver.
Wow. I Went to highschool with Rabih Alkhalil. Had a brief altercation with him once in shop class... threatened to knock me out. In my humble opinion I think I could have taken him at the time due to my muscular build, but I walked away. I'm glad I did. Who knows what would have happened to me if he went home with a black eye or something.
I worked at the Balmoral in the late '80s and had a great summer. Then all that super-pure heroin showed up and its all downhill from there. Heres a shout out to anybody else lucky enough to make it out alive.
Get real it’s a port city, Vancouver has always had criminal organizations and there has always been a moderately high crime rate along with it of course.

Lived in Vancouver for decades, I went through all the gang war news. This connects a lot of blank zones. Great video, thank you.
Glad you got some value out of this one, cheers mate
Steady stream of information -- Good. Thanks. On to Parts 1 &2.
Glad you enjoyed this one, cheers
I like how buddy covers community centers and gangs. Very broad.
Thanks for watching, glad you're getting some value out of the videos. Cheers
Great Video! Just subscribed!
I appreciate it, thanks for watching!
Excellent video!
I appreciate it, cheers!
I was introduced to gang activity because I live in subsidized housing. These guys are total losers, most of them are total goofs.
the groups in Van have changed a lot over time
Seems that way, I was surprised how many groups have existed in that city.

Vancouver always had this sinister underbelly throughout the decades. Same crimes, different faces.
I know you covered many Chinese gangs in part 2, but just curious if the Japanese Yakuza ever had any historical presence in the Lower Mainland?

@@KennethWedin I feel like the yakuza work with the gangs here to send escorts and they make money that way

Vancouver was relatively safe when I grew up there in the 70s. Not any longer.
What city is safe?
Still is if you're not a drug dealer.
Vancouver was safe even up until covid. Random attacks were extremely rare. Since covid, there are several per day.

Worked for Larry Amero repairs to his house, decent chap payed me properly 😊❤
Anything else would be dangerous.
How did we get from the Kings Crew to 6 gangs in Canada?…
I was wondering about that shooting with the guy and his kid in Edmonton last year. Media doesn't tell you anything. They painted the guy as a saint.
Yeah that was wild, sad the kid had to be caught up in all that - definitely a rarity. Cheers
The media made it sound like a big mystery. Poor kid, but his dad knew what he was getting into.
If there really is gangs where are your precious police
