You'd think somebody in upper management would be smart enough to push back - actually I should just stop there. Nobody in upper management thinks. They just go where the money is, and rely on time to fix whatever damaged the brand's reputation.

Tim Hortons is anti-canadian, full stop.

Tim Horton's hasn't been Canadian (or good) for a long time now, so I'm not surprised that they are being shitty.

Honestly, I had Tim's a week or so back and it was way better than I remember it being. Had a breakfast wrap and it was well constructed, stuffed, and tasted good.

Then not more than a day or two later, someone brought Tim's donuts to work, and those too were better than I remembered.

Found Doug Ford’s account!

They’re better than 5 years ago for sure, but still not as good as 15 years ago.

If you’re doing fast food A&W Canada is basically the best, but thankfully there’s a new generation of competition all around.

Is this an ad

[–] Albbi@lemmy.ca 1 points 8 minutes ago

How dare someone describe a personal experience that doesn't match the narrative!

Tim Horton's is disgusting and inedible. They are dead to me.

The last movie is 15 years old ! Seriously can we forget about it ?

[–] Reannlegge@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

The terf wrote a new book or two on the IP, maybe there was a movie recently or something.

[–] Vedlt@lemmy.world 4 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I think they are remaking the movies or there is a show being produced now, I vaguely recall hearing something along those lines.

[–] Reannlegge@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 hour ago

Yes that is right I think I hear about a TV show as well, I hope it flops horribly and the media decides the IP is worthless now.

I will not being purchasing anything from Tim Hortons for the duration of this promotion

At least their honest about their morals.

[–] Reannlegge@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 hour ago

Tim Hortons is now dead to me I did enjoy eating the occasional doughnut but that is it no more.

So many people so incapable of separating art from artist. Tons of artists are horrible people whom no one should interact with. If we can only care about the art of flawless people who have all the right beliefs and acceptable thoughts on all topics then we might as well start burning all of the books and movies now.

Lmao JK Rowling actively funds queer hate groups and this directly puts money in her wallet. Maybe save separating the art from the artist when their dead and their families aren't using the money to put fascists all over the world in power.

I'm sure many artists and actors in things you financially support hold the same views and make similar donations, and that you don't bother to dig deeply into every one of them to be sure they don't. You're only bothering to hate on the one who's loudest and easiest to single out. It's not you standing for anything other than jumping on the bandwagon. Performative virtue signaling so everyone sees how much you care and how good a person you are.

Exactly. You can love harry potter without liking JK in the slightest, there are two different things. And you don't get to ruin other people's enjoyment of a franchise just because you're having a fight with the author. The whole thing is kind of silly
