Vincenzo “Jimmy” Demaria a reputed Toronto mafia boss had his parole yanked and he has been returned to custody for meeting with known underworld members. Under his parole conditions he was not allowed to associate with any known criminals but police surveillance captured him meeting on multiple occassions with members of a traditional organized crime group.
According to authorities in a 2010 report DeMaria is one of the leading GTA bosses of the Calabrian mafia also known as the Ndrangheta. He has been on parole for the past quarter century after a 1982 murder conviction over an alleged drug debt.

Recently he was also considered to be a GTA enemy of the Rizzuto crime family and now diceased Montreal mafia boss Vito Rizzuto. He was arrested in similar parole violations back in 2009 when he was caught associating with known members of the Ndrangheta. With the recent Montreal mafia war dragging on and seemingly finding its way to GTA mob territory it may end up being what keeps him safe.
Mob sources say it is possible that he may been a part of a hit list as members of what remains of the Sicilian based Rizzuto family strike back after the failed take over by a possible Ndrangheta backed faction.
Parole being revokedmust be the mafia worst nightmare.You here regually mobsters taken of the streets because breaking there parole.The violence has stopped recently is it because of recent arrests or has there been a peace treaty?
A nightmare indeed esp since a lot of these guys need to make some contact with other mobsters to continue to do business and earn. I would imagine it can be a rock and a hard spot kind of thing.
Seems since the death of Vito Rizzuto the violence has simmered down although there was a recent hit on Carmine Verduci a high ranking guy in the Ndrangheta , so maybe its kind of a quite before another storm or perhaps things have settled and some understandings and peace can again be agreed upon.
