Eh, I dunno... Tim's marketing does wrap itself in all manner of Canadiana. There is definetely a nationalistic bend to their advertising so while I agree that likely very few folk buy coffee deliberately out of a sense of Canadian patriotism I think more then a few are influenced (conciously or unconciously) by their marketing which plays heavily into that.
Personally I think I like Tim's because it generally hits the sweet spot of taste (Not bad coffee + hot food), convienence (lot's of them + one located on my way to work), and affordability (Cheaper then Starbucks/Second Cup).
