The Montreal Chapter is most responsible for the organization's current success in Quebec. The Hells Angels expanded it's influence across the province in the early 80s and approached several biker gangs. A few of them would eventually become Hells Angels Chapters and others remain under the gang's control.
The Hells Angels, with the help of it's puppet clubs, continues to be a dominant force in the Montreal underworld. The gang derives millions of dollars a year from illegal activities, mostly drugs and prostitution.
