« Anna Labelle, alias Mme Émile Beauchamp, la tenancière la plus puissante de Montréal pendant la Deuxième Guerre mondiale. Arrêtée pour la dernière fois en 1939, elle se rend par la suite régulièrement au palais de justice dans sa Cadillac, emmitouflée dans un vison, pour libérer ses gérantes. La petite histoire dit qu'elle reçoit chaque semaine des policiers dans sa riche demeure du 219 Sherbrooke ouest pour planifier les descentes à venir. »
