This chapter unravels the twisted connections between organized crime and the rise of wealth in Metro Vancouver, the infamous Pickton brothers, whose sudden riches from real estate sales shielded their horrific crimes. We’ll also explore the murders of stockbrokers, the disappearance of Nick and Lisa Masee, and the brazen assassinations that point to a deeper, more insidious web of corruption involving gangs and white-collar criminals.
In this tangled web, gang violence, drug trafficking, and money laundering run alongside legitimate businesses. The same fortunes that flowed into the city’s penthouses have been funneled through Vancouver’s streets, tainting both legal enterprises and the growing criminal empire. It is in this murky landscape that Vancouver’s present-day chaos took root.
From the rise of biker gangs and drug trade to the mysterious disappearances and assassinations that followed, the consequences of this toxic blend of greed and violence echo through the Lower Mainland, shaping the city we see today. This is the story of Vancouver's hidden underworld—where money, crime, and chaos collided.
