![]() As a result, not all their investments prove successful, but those that do work out, pack a big punch. High risk-takers, they undertake projects that have very high payback. They are men of their word who walk along the knife-edge between collapse and victory on many of their ventures. The integrity of the Papalia brothers is unquestionable in my opinion. I can assure the reader that having researched each and every strange fact I have found the tale absolutely genuine. There are elements of this book that, at first, may seem impossible or contrived. Insinuations derived from established sources such as the police, army or government agencies are often accepted at face value without addressing the possible real motives behind the accusations. The story itself is always more newsworthy. Our supposed Free Press when faced with such stories rarely push hard enough against the people or methods behind the accounts. Many of the rumors I heard turned out so absent of reality that I wonder how information derived from our media is really confirmable by an individual reader, listener or viewer.Ĭanadians tend to react uncomfortably to reports that there are members of our government institutions whose sole purpose is to investigate, interrogate, intimidate, and harass legitimate citizens, whose ideas and ways may differ from the norm. Their reputation has been tarnished by the many charges and court cases which they have been put through but the knowledge that truth was on their side gave them the resolve to battle through to victory. Harassed by the RCMP, Scotland Yard, the Canadian Government, and many envious investors, the Papalias have survived through sheer will and determination to succeed and to do it with flair and excellence. My impressions from afar had been tainted by the gossip and innuendo that have swirled around these characters since the late 1970’s. The Papalias are investors who believe in generating wealth out of wealth. But when put to work, it provides the driving force by which society can be improved. When an individual earns money, an opportunity is created to apply this wealth to achieve something better. Money is simply a system used to evaluate the relative value of merit of different activities, products or services in a society. Greed implies evil - acquiring wealth through exploitation or cheating of another. Some people may think that those who invest money do it out of greed - out of a desire to obtain more wealth at the expense of others. The story surrounding the acquisition, proving, and defending of this property is full of the intrigue and suspense of a spy novel yet everything you read is true. From these humble beginnings they eventually became owners of what may be today one of Canada’s largest gold deposits. They grew up in a working-class suburb of Montreal and became involved in music promotion activities while still in high school. In 1957, Robert and Tony Papalia came to Canada as youngsters with their family. This is also a story about success and failure and the ability of the human spirit to rise up from the ashes and continue to strive for excellence. This is the story of two brothers - identical twins, who went in search of a gold mine, found one and then were forced to defend themselves against attacks on many fronts as they battled to bring it into fulfillment.
