I never said it was "yours" I said it was "ours". If Tims isn't your choice fine, that doesn't make it any less of a cultural institution. Just because you don't like it doesn't nullify this. Americans have a cultural institution revolving around guns. Do all Americans like this stigma? No, but that doesn't mean it's not there. From an outside perspective, America is guns, fat people, and car racing. From an outside perspective, Canada is cold, hockey, and Tims. It's not really a choice, its just the way it is.
