You don't have to be in Montreal, Boston or Philly to find
biker wars; we have them right here in the Canadian prairies.
Since the Hell's Angels came to town a couple of years ago
and essentially took over the most powerful of the local
biker gangs, there have been several killings and shootings
involving the Angels, their street gang, the Zig Zag Crew,
and their wannabees and what's left of another biker gang.
Members have been found executed, gang locations have been
bombed, and a shooting took place on the longest street in
Canada, the TransCanada Highway, i.e., Portage Ave in
Winnipeg. A couple of weeks ago a Zig Zag Crew drug dealer
was found shot to death on a church grounds just a few
minutes from my home. And I live in River Heights, long
considered to be one of the safest areas of the city. Funny,
most people don't seem to be concerned.
