Tim Hortons Hasn't Been Canadian-Owned For A Long Time - Mashed
www.mashed.com
For all its red and white color schemes and general maple leaf-ness, Tim Hortons isn't quite as quintessentially Canadian as you might have assumed.

Just a little reminder.

Pisses me off to no end that they use the Canadian identity for marketing when they sold out decades ago.

Also their coffee and food has been shit for a long time too, coincidence? I think not.

    At this point the only Canadian thing about them is in showing how dumb we can be.

    I know people who go there, complain about the coffee but go there out of nostalgia … on a daily basis.

    They aren’t buying a brand, a product or even food … they’re just buying a memory.

        That’s it! … that’s the reason! … fanatical conservatism in the Tim Horton’s coffee!!!
