Island Mafia

The Vancouver Island Mafia, typically known colloquially as simply the Island Mafia, is a major organised crime and drug trafficking group, the largest and most powerful of its kind on Vancouver Island, an insular province of Western Canada. In 2020 it had an estimated total membership of 8800.

The Island Mafia has its headquarters just north of Courtney, on the Old Island Highway toward Black Creek and onward to Campbell River, although it maintains operations and networks up and down the Island. Its primary local (on-island) allies are local Hells Angels MC chapters and the British Columbia Cartel.
