These people are such suckers.

Some of you are so irrational. Tim Horton's doesn't force anyone to consume their products. Not a single Canadian. Lets not forget Tim Horton was a Canadian man that played for the Toronto Maple Leafs so even the name Tim Hortons is Canadian. Funny how "Made in America" elicits pride in Americans but if you try that in Canada you are loathed? Weird.
Tim Hortons doesn't give a #### about Canada? I think we all realize that every single company cares about the bottom line above all but whether it be Timbits Hockey or childrens camps they actually do give back to communities. It's fairly obvious by your posts that you have an irrational dislike for Tim Hortons so why make up bogus reasoning when you can just as easily accomplish by saying you don't like them?
