While we were brainstorming about organized crimes, we came to many interrogations... Kevin talked about organized crimes in North America. The problem with this was that North America has a very vast territory, so it was really hard to focus on all North America. Samantha though that we could orient our research on a specific group, as the presence of Al-Quaïda in Canada. We have not chosen this idea because it was not so much about organized crimes. Kevin and Samantha argued that it was part of it. For contradictory reasons between team members, we decided to focus on something else. We ended up with: What place do organized crime take in Canada? Our research question respect the three criterias for different reasons.
It respects clarity because our question will focus on a specific territory. Not only we are talking about this, we also focus on specific branch of the delinquency, which is organized crime. In our brainstorm we came up with sources. We can easily interview people that knows about organized crime. We have contact with people from law inforcement that can inform us more precisely on what is going on in Canada, in matter of organized crime. The feasibility criteria is then respected. It is pertinent to make a research on organized crime in Canada, in order to know how do these delinquents make their place in a pacific country such as Canada.
Our team has chosen to talk about stereotypes of members of organized crime. If we focus on how society percieve them, we can easily locate what is defined by people as being organized criminals.
Here's a case study that can be useful to support our reaserch on organized crime that occured throughout Canada.
''This series of arrests in the Québec City and Montérégie areas is the result of a major police investigation, called Project “Château", which was initiated in November 2006.'' ¹
