The Hell 's Angels had first entered Quebec in 1977 , but the group was badly weakened by the Lennoxville massacre on 24 March 1985 when five members of the Angels ' chapter in Laval were shot by their colleagues . Afterwards , the vacuum was filled by a number of Montreal-based organized crime groups such as the Rock Machine , and it was not until the early 1990s that the Angels became a major force in Montreal organized crime again . As the Laval chapter of the Angels had been liquidated , the leaders of the Sorel chapter fled to Canada upon learning that they were also targeted . Boucher , who would become the new president of the Sorel chapter , rose quickly through the ranks . In the aftermath of the massacre , Michel " Sky " Langois , the national president of the Canadian Hells Angels fled Canada to Morocco after a warrant was issued for his arrest on charges of first-degree murder and Boucher , who became a " full patch " Hells Angel on 1 May 1987 , became president of the Montreal South chapter later that year . One of Boucher 's friends was Guy Lepage , a former Montreal police officer dismissed from the force for associating with Mafiosi , who became his main contact with the Mafia
