Just chiming in that Tim Hortons is utter shit. While I'm sure I could come up with some stories if pressed, Tim Hortons as a company is just shit in general. Its gross crap that gets by solely on 2 factors. First, its cheap. This isn't really an excuse though because any other fast food company is going to have comparable prices for coffee and muffins. Second, and this is really the most insidious part, Tim Hortons has found a perfect niche in their market by juxtaposing their brand with Canadian patriotism. They've done such a good job of slapping the maple leaf and shoving stereotypical Canadiana down your throat through their overly saccharine advertising that they have actually managed to weasel their way into being a genuine part of whatever cultural fabric this country has left. Now, if you dare criticize this foreign owned company in any way every mouthbreather with a plaid jacket and pair of hockey skates immediately rushes to its defense and tells you if you don't like Tim Hortons you hate Canada. Its both incredibly impressive and deeply disturbing what a wonderful job they've done.

Fuck Tim Hortons.
