How does a PR manager even allow that message to go out?
I think this will be bigger than Earls. Earls is barely known outside of Alberta. A&W is a national franchise, give it time, they only responded yesterday and the backlash seems pretty big.

What an idiotic tweet. What were they thinking?

A&W Does our best to source as much Canadian #beef as possible, but there simply isn't enough that matches our standards.
