Blaise Diesbourg, born in 1897, was also known as "King Canada," and was a major figure in the liquor smuggling and bootlegging business around Windsor, Ontario during the American prohibition period. His success brought him in contact with Al Capone, who arranged a deal with Diesbourg to supply him with regular shipments of alcohol by plane. Diesbourg took the name "King Canada" at this time as an alias to hide from legal authorities.
