BOSTON - The search for fugitive New England mob boss James "Whitey" Bulger has ventured into western Canada.

The FBI said today authorities circulated wanted posters of Bulger, 80, and his girlfriend, 59-year-old Catherine Greig, around the city of Victoria, British Columbia, last week as part of an ongoing worldwide campaign to locate the notorious South Boston gangster who fled just before he was indicted on federal racketeering charges in January 1995.

Jordan Minter of Russell Books in Victoria said three men from the FBI arrived at his store a week ago. They showed him a wanted poster for Bulger.

7. Don't you just love that New England provincialism?
"Yet there are those in Southie who still think he's a great guy."
I've lived in RI and MA. The "folk hero" status that some of these thugs attain blow my mind.

10. They're still looking for Whitey?
I read a bio about him and his brother. Scary stuff.

He's become another D.B. Cooper.
