Money laundering in Montreal? Pas possible!

According to the Montreal Gazette in October 2011 the International Money Laundering Conference in downtown Montreal attracted more than 600 delegates from 48 countries.

After all, what location could surpass that of Montreal where hoodlums are lionized and a public enquiry into corruption among politicians and construction companies will finally soon be underway after months of stalling by Quebec's premier? Where the Gazette routinely reports on Mafia killings and the exploits of the Hell's Angels?

No doubt delegates had fun swapping heavy suitcases full of cash from the four dozen countries.
