Enquête | Lino Saputo’s Lapse of Memory

Lino Saputo is one of Canada's most prosperous businessmen. He was the long time president of Saputo inc., a multi-billion dollar international cheese and dairy conglomerate. However, suspected links to organized crime have sometimes tainted Lino Saputo’s success. In his autobiography published in the fall of 2019, Saputo devotes an entire chapter denying his connection to the mafia.
But new evidence unearthed by Radio-Canada’s investigative program, Enquête, reveals Lino Saputo has had decade-long links to organized crime figures. One of those figures was none other than Joe Bonnano, the godfather of the Bonnano's, a notorious New York mafia syndicate.
