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.

    BC has Waves, Serious Coffee, Island Grind, Blenz, JJ Bean, and more but thats what I can recall off the top of my head.

    Ottawa has Bridgehead

      Waves and Blenz are a crapshoot for decent coffee, but they have good blended drinks. Turks, JJ Bean, Kafka’s and Palette, and Matchstick(though I’ve heard some bad gossip about an owner) are all great for coffee and espresso.

        I don’t even try to navigate the mess of corporate ownership. There’s always a little shop ran by a guy with an espresso machine.

        It won’t be drive thru but the coffee will taste good
