Beneath Guelph, Ontario are sealed tunnels.

In the 1920s they moved beer from the Sleeman Brewery straight to the mob.

When Canada went "dry" in 1916, a loophole created billionaires.

The Sleeman brothers. Rocco Perri. And a pipeline to Al Capone.

This is the story of Canada’s bootlegging empire:

The 50-year ban, the King of the Bootleggers,

and why Ontario still has government liquor stores today.

From Silver Creek to Chicago.

This is Fireside Chat with Cage.
