"A company doesn't issue three press releases in a single week unless it's feeling pressure. That's why Tim Hortons appears concerned about Dunkin's return to Canada. And when people claim Tim Hortons is more Canadian than Dunkin, I beg to differ. Tim Hortons is owned by a company headquartered... show more

Team Canada tells me to put 'Canada First'. They also say Tim Hortons is a national treasure and part of our heritage. Yet Tim Hortons isn't Canadian-owned, the food is shit and the workers can barely speak English. There's nothing Canadian about Tim Hortons.

This is glorious! Government-subsidized media runs a "Canada vs. US" propaganda piece. It claims Canadians (at a Tim Hortons) will always pick "Canadian" Tims over "American" Dunkin' Donuts. FUN FACT: Tims is majority-owned by a Brazilian-American company.🇧🇷🇺🇸

Trouble is brewing for Tim Hortons as Dunkin' Donuts returns to Canada Great news! Tim Hortons is about to get some much-needed direct competition on the coffee and donuts front. After an eight-year hiatus, Dunkin’ Donuts is coming back to Canada. As reported in the Toronto Sun by the superb food professor Dr. Sylvain Charlebois, Dunkin’ Donuts was once a formidable player in the Canadian coffee and donuts sector, especially in Quebec. Dr. Charlebois is the director of the Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University, a co-host of The Food Professor Podcast, and a visiting scholar at McGill University. He knows his stuff when it comes to the food and foodservice sectors. And now comes word that Dunkin’ is back – and it means business, with as many as 700 locations opening in Canada beginning later this year. The player behind the return of Dunkin’ Donuts is Foodtastic. Foodtastic is a Montreal-based restaurant consolidator that has a reputation for aggressively acquiring and revitalizing brands across Canada. This includes such chains as Pita Pit, Second Cup, Freshii and Quesada. Dr. Charlebois notes that, unlike many foreign operators trying to enter Canada, Foodtastic actually understands the Canadian and Quebec markets intimately. And this understanding is crucial for success. So, the question arises: Why is Dunkin’ Donuts set to return now? Dr. Charlebois says the decision to revive this iconic U.S. brand in the Great White North is all about identifying weakness in our domestic market. He notes: “For years, Tim Hortons dominated Canada’s quick-service coffee market with extraordinary efficiency. It wasn’t just a coffee chain; it became part of Canada’s cultural identity. But dominance can create complacency, and the Canadian marketplace today is very different from the one Dunkin’ left behind. Consumer loyalty has weakened. Canadians are far more willing to switch brands than they were 20 years ago. Inflation has changed buying habits. Consumers are increasingly critical of value, quality, consistency and service. At the same time, the coffee market itself has evolved dramatically.” He is right on the money. What’s more, I think Dr. Charlebois is far too polite in his analysis of Tim’s reputational downfall. I mean, let’s be honest: most of the food Tim Hortons serves up these days is practically inedible. As for the chain’s decades-old slogan, “Always Fresh”, that’s an outright fallacy. Tim Hortons stores used to bake donuts and muffins from scratch. But about 20 years ago, they got rid of their bakers, a decision that was driven by reducing labour costs. Now the stores heat up par-baked items, which are nicknamed frozen pucks, in convection ovens. This is a task that’s easily done by those making minimum wage, and without any knowledge of baking. “Always Fresh” indeed… And maybe it’s just me, but why do so many Tim Hortons stores seem so shabby? And why are the washrooms so frequently filthy? It’s like nobody in charge seems to care anymore. Which is why Dr. Charlebois notes that, “Ironically, Dunkin’s return may say less about the strength of Dunkin’ and more about the reality that Tim Hortons is no longer viewed as invincible. That alone makes this story worth watching carefully.” And I would add that even though Tim Hortons wraps itself in the Maple Leaf, Tim’s is no longer a Canadian-owned chain but part of a multinational conglomerate. It’s Canadian in name only, and I’m sure the man it is named after is rolling in his grave right now. I'm going to give the CEO of Foodtastic eight figures worth of free consulting advice: If you want to really resonate with Canadian customers who are pissed off with Tim Hortons, stage a press conference in which you announce that your company plans to hire Canadians to staff Dunkin’ Donuts shops, and that you will not take advantage of the Temporary Foreign Worker program. In recent years, Tim Hortons has earned the dubious nickname of “Singh Hortons”. Sure, this company loves selling products to Canadians. But it is increasingly not hiring Canadians as staffers – even though Tim’s is a multibillion-dollar restaurant chain that certainly does not need government handouts. I am certain this would be a winning communications strategy for Foodtastic as it resurrects Dunkin’ Donuts in these parts. Talk about irony in this day and age of “elbows up”! Will an American-based coffee and donut chain actually end up being more Canadian than Tim Hortons? Can’t wait to see what transpires in the months ahead. REPORT by David Menzies:

"Tim Hortons seems nervous. Why issue two press releases in one week just to announce new restaurant openings, while avoiding the real issues consumers keep talking about: quality and menu design? Dunkin’ Donuts’ comeback is clearly getting their attention."

93 Tim Hortons locations are still hiring foreign workers right now! Tim Hortons lied to you. A couple of days ago, every regime media outlet in the country ran the same cheerful story: Tim Hortons, long notorious for importing cheap foreign labour, was turning over a new leaf. They were going to hire 10,000 “locals.” What a turnaround. What a company. Pass the double-double! I didn't buy it. So I went to the government's own temporary foreign worker website and did a quick search. I was shocked to find 93 Tim Hortons locations are actively advertising for temporary foreign workers. Literally at the same time their spin doctors are claiming they’re hiring Canadians. So I printed out the job postings, fired up our billboard truck, and headed to one of the foreign-staffed Tim Hortons to ask for the manager. The Tim Hortons I went to was offering $36 an hour for a restaurant manager. Their government of Canada job listing claimed that no Canadian would do the job. The Tim Hortons executive in the store told me he'd “never seen” the foreign worker ads before. Really? They're on the government TFW website. Anyone can look them up. I showed it to him live, on camera. He should tell that to the father I met outside, whose 21-year-old son can't find work. I spent nearly an hour out front talking to passersby. Not one person — not a single one — said Tim Hortons should keep hiring foreign workers over Canadians. And many of the people I spoke with were immigrants themselves. It's only Tim Hortons that disagrees. (Tim Hortons, by the way, is not even a Canadian company anymore. It's owned by a Brazilian hedge fund called 3G Capital.) Tim Hortons is lying about quitting cheap foreign labour. So we're going to drive that truck to the other locations still hiring foreign workers. It’s bad enough that they’re hiring foreigners instead of locals. It’s worse that they’re lying about it! I've been doing this long enough to know that corporations only change behaviour when they feel it in the till. REPORT by Ezra Levant 🍁🚛:

💥We just caught Tim Hortons lying to your face! While Tim Hortons runs a national PR tour telling the media they've changed, they're actively recruiting overseas and shutting Canadians out. We just caught Tim Hortons telling a big lie — and they told it straight to your face! This week, the company — which isn't even Canadian, by the way; it's owned by a Brazilian hedge fund called 3G Capital — announced with great fanfare that they're going to start hiring Canadians again. The regime media ate it up without a single hard question. The Globe and Mail. CTV. Global News. All of them just reprinted Tim Hortons' talking points, word for word. Not surprising — Tim Hortons is one of their biggest advertisers. They've been paid to look the other way. But here's what they didn't tell you. Just seven days ago, the Tim Hortons CEO was personally registered as a lobbyist to keep Canada's immigration laws as loose as possible. It's right there in the official lobbyist registry — in his own words. He's been going to bat for mass immigration while publicly claiming the company hasn't lobbied for foreign workers in over a year. That's what he told the Globe and a lie. But, wait. There's more. Go right now to federal government's Temporary Foreign Worker website, built for foreigners to find jobs in Canada — and search "Tim Hortons." What do you find? Eighty-eight active job postings. Right now. Today. Food counter attendants in Victoria. Supervisors in Duncan, B.C. Entry-level jobs in Fort McMurray and Prince George. Restaurant Managers in Toronto and in Mississauga. Jobs that any Canadian teenager or young adult could do. While Tim Hortons runs a national PR tour telling the media they've changed, they're actively recruiting overseas and shutting Canadians out. They think you're too stupid to find out. Prove them wrong.

Right now, Tim Hortons has 88 active job listings on the federal government's Temporary Foreign Worker website — reserved for overseas hires. Food counter attendants. Supervisors. Entry-level positions in cities across Canada. Young Canadians face 14.3% unemployment, and Tim Hortons is choosing to look past them entirely.

Tim Hortons loves to wrap itself in the Canadian flag, but why won't they hire Canadians?🍁 Rebel News visits a Tim Hortons location and the company's corporate headquarters in Toronto in an effort to get answers to why this supposedly proud Canadian company is hiring temporary foreign workers instead of Canadians. Canadian companies hiring temporary foreign workers is out of control. The summer job is merely a memory, part-time jobs for students are vanishing. And meanwhile, the unemployment rate is a shocking 7.1%. So why are so many companies — profitable companies with revenues in the billions of dollars — hiring temporary foreign workers? Well, it’s strictly business, baby. Companies can pay temporary foreign workers less money. And these people are far more “compliant” than “domestics” given the prospect of losing one’s job likely means a trip back home. Meanwhile, temporary foreign workers see this opportunity as a means to become permanent residents and eventually full-fledged citizens. It might be win-win for corporations and temporary foreign workers. But it is a losing proposition for taxpaying Canadian citizens who want to work. People are not amused. A recent Abacus Data poll indicates that 44% of Canadians want to see the temporary foreign worker program scrapped given the high unemployment rate — especially among young people. And even though Canada’s biggest foodservice company is Tim Hortons — a company that loves to wrap itself in the Canadian flag — Timmy’s (which is now owned by multinational corporation Restaurant Brands International) is actively seeking temporary foreign workers rather than Canadians. Every penny counts, it would seem. Shameful. We recently visited a Tim Hortons at the corner of Lawrence Avenue and Yonge Street in north Toronto. According to the federal government’s job bank, this franchise is taking advantage of the temporary foreign workers program. One ad posted in July of this year indicated it was seeking to hire someone at a rate of $36/hour. Apparently, this store could not find a Canadian willing to work for $36/hour and therefore needed a temporary foreign worker for the position. Does anyone believe that? If you do, then we have some beachfront property for sale in Saskatchewan… The manager at this store was very evasive when we asked questions. We left our contact information hoping to speak to the franchise owner, but at time of writing, never heard back. It also appeared that the lion’s share of the staff at this Tim Hortons restaurant was from the Philippines. Our next stop was the palatial head office of Tim Hortons in downtown Toronto. Even though this company has an entire media relations team, nobody would receive us. Cowards. Are you disgusted with major companies gaming the system is such a fashion? Then kindly sign our petition at Tim Hortons may be making money hand over fist (RBI’s revenue jumped 5.4% in 2024 compared to the previous year). But it clearly has a public relations problem given its strategy of shunning Canadians. After all, when a growing number of Canadians now refer to this chain as “Singh Hortons” rather than “Tim Hortons”, that’s a problem. Meanwhile, the NHL legend the chain is named for must be rolling in his grave…

Is this Aurora, Ont. Tim Hortons denying young customers access to the bathroom? You may recall our recent reports regarding Tim Hortons. We exposed the company for lying through its teeth at a recent presser. Tim Hortons said it was going to go back to hiring Canadian citizens. That would certainly be great news — if only it were true. That’s because Tim’s is STILL making use of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program! Indeed, there are about 90 positions currently available under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program. Oops… Even worse, the company’s CEO has personally registered as a lobbyist to keep make sure the TFW Program remains in place for the benefit of Tim Hortons! Shameful. Tim Hortons loves selling its wares to Canadians. As for hiring Canadians? Nah… not so much, really. But get this: we discovered Tim Hortons has a very thin skin. Because when the executives at Canada’s biggest foodservice company saw our reports, they blew a fuse! You see, Tim’s is used to getting positive press from the mainstream media. Tim’s is one of the largest advertisers in Canada. Translation: this company maintains a cozy business arrangement with the trained seals in the mainstream media. It boils down to this: report nice stuff about Tim’s, and Tim’s will cut big cheques for ads. Quid pro quo. But unlike the mainstream media, Rebel News is not domesticated. We don’t bend the knee to this company nor any other company. And so it was that Tim’s decided to play hardball. Which is to say, the company was so infuriated with our reporting that Rebel News was sent a legal letter on June 1. Here’s the skinny: for practicing unauthorized and unapproved journalism at an Aurora, Ont. Tim Hortons store, I am now BANNED FOR LIFE from going to ANY Tim Hortons in Canada! Wow, that’s harsh! (Well, not really given the nosedive in food quality in recent years…) In any event, we are not making this up! Here’s an excerpt from that letter: “David Menzies, due to past behaviour, is not, for any reason, permitted access to the premises, including parking lots, landscaped areas, and drive-thrus of any Tim Hortons restaurant in Canada, any and all manufacturing and distribution facilities owned or operated by TDL across Canada and the Tim Hortons offices in Montreal, Calgary and Toronto.” Incredible… Do you want to know something else that’s incredible? That very same Tim Hortons in Aurora is currently breaking the law! Here’s the skinny: we interviewed a young lady, Jordyn,18, while on-site (well, we were on a public sidewalk as we didn’t want to be arrested for trespassing.) Jordyn told us an astonishing story. Namely, young people at this Tim’s are routinely refused the use of the bathroom — even if they are paying customers! Alas, this time the control freaks at Tim Hortons have gone too far. First, they are breaking the public health code of York Region. Which is to say a sit-down restaurant MUST provide the use of a bathroom for paying customers – regardless of age. Secondly, this franchise is clearly in violation of the Ontario Human Rights Code when it comes to ageism. Indeed, this particular Tim Hortons is truly skating on thin ice believing that it is above the law. And get this: when we phoned the franchise owner, Drew, we caught him in a lie! Drew said nobody is denied the use of the washroom — even though just minutes earlier a supervisor said it is true that young people are banned from the bathroom, especially when the restaurant gets busy. And yes, we have it all on tape. Bottom line: it is downright disgusting this Tim Hortons franchise would deny a basic human right to its paying customers. What are they thinking? As for the owner, Drew, we predict he has a very bright future ahead for him at Tim’s parent company, Restaurant Brands International Inc. Just like RBI’s CEO, Drew is very adept in the art of lying. And that surely makes this particular Tim-Wit executive class material… REPORT by David Menzies:

Here’s the skinny: for practicing unauthorized and unapproved journalism, I am now BANNED FOR LIFE from going to any Tim Hortons store in Canada! We’re not making this up! Here’s an excerpt from that letter: “David Menzies, due to past behaviour, is not, for any reason, permitted access to the premises, including parking lots, landscaped areas, and drive-thrus of any Tim Hortons restaurant in Canada, any and all manufacturing and distribution facilities owned or operated by TDL across Canada and the Tim Hortons offices in Montreal, Calgary and Toronto.” The letter is signed by a Mr. Tim Bit. (OK, we made up that last part. But the truth is, we don’t know who signed the letter because we can’t read the signature. But it sure looks like “Tim Bit” to us…) But seriously, such a cruel punishment, eh? You see, I can no longer purchase an inedible edible that tastes like a piece of rancid cardboard. I cannot venture into a bathroom that resembles a public beach in Mumbai, India. I can no longer gaze upon a baked goods display case overrun by insects. Oh, say it ain’t so! Gee, what other “delights” can I look forward to being banned from? Going for a scenic drive in Kapuskasing during a winter blizzard? Being denied floor seats at a Yoko Ono concert? Oh, the humanity…! Don’t worry, Tim’s. I promise to stay out of your filthy restaurants and never again consume your garbage cuisine. Besides, in the months ahead, some 700 Dunkin’ Donuts are going to open in Canada. We can’t wait! But get this: even me being on a public sidewalk near a Tim Hortons is unacceptable to the Tim Wits. That’s what we found out last Thursday when we returned to the Aurora Tim’s. Myself and cameraman Lincoln Jay obeyed the legal letter and recorded a follow-up video from the sidewalk along Wellington Street East. Alas, the mere sight of Rebel News staffers – even from afar – had the owner frothing mad. He actually called the cops! And incredibly, THREE York Regional Police cruisers rushed to the scene of the non-crime. They lingered there for more than an hour. Why? Who knows? Oh, just to put things in perspective, York Region is in the midst of its worst crime wave ever. And this is what law enforcement squanders its resources on? Unbelievable… So, in the final analysis, what have we learned about Tim Hortons? Firstly, this company is run by a bunch of traitors. Tim Hortons, which grossly wraps itself in the Maple Leaf, prefers to hire noncitizens over Canadians. Because this multi-billion dollar company is all about the bottom line and it will use any nickel-and-dime strategy to boost profits. Ethics mean nothing to this company. Secondly, Tim Hortons is run by bullies. We caught them in a blatant lie. And we called them out. And for the utter temerity of reporting the truth, they threaten me with arrest? These are Banana Republic garbage tactics. How sad. We think of the late great hockey player for whom this company is named. That Tim Horton must be rolling in his grave right now.

Shooting the messenger? Rebel News reporter BANNED FOR LIFE from visiting Tim Hortons! Just when you think you’ve seen everything, along comes a story about a double-double turning into double trouble… You may recall our recent reports regarding Tim Hortons. We exposed the company for lying through its teeth at a recent presser. Tim Hortons said they were going to go back to hiring Canadian citizens. That would be great news if only it were true. That’s because Tim’s is STILL making use of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program! Check out the federal government’s job board. Tim’s currently has about 90 positions available under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program. Sure, Tim Hortons loves selling its wares to Canadians. As for hiring Canadians? Nah. Not so much… But get this: we discovered Tim Hortons has a very thin skin. Because when the executives at Canada’s biggest foodservice company saw our reports, they blew a fuse! You see, Tim’s is used to getting positive press from the mainstream media. Tim’s is one of the largest advertisers in Canada. This company has a cozy business arrangement with the trained seals in the mainstream media. And it boils down to this: report nice stuff about Tim’s, and Tim’s will cut some big cheques for ads. Quid pro quo. But unlike the mainstream media, Rebel News is not domesticated. We don’t bend the knee to this company or any other company. And so it was that Tim’s decided to play hardball.

Tim Hortons announces plan to hire 10,000 local job seekers. After years of telling us that Canadian youth were "too lazy" to work and that only TFWs could pour coffee, Tim's is trying to win back lost support. This is a PR stunt from a company that betrayed Canadians.

Cohere, a Canadian AI company, received $240M in taxpayer funding. Much of it reportedly went to a data centre built and operated by a U.S. firm. Now, Cohere is reportedly in talks to merge with a German company. I asked if they’re committed to remaining Canadian-controlled. Their response was not definitive. Did the Liberals include sovereignty guarantees in the $240M contract?

So it looks like Dunkin’ Donuts making a Canadian comeback. CP24 of course wonders if it will do ok since Canadians elbows are up. They are already trying to manipulate the public. I would much rather go to a Dunkin’ Donuts than a Tim Hortons any day of the week. I hope this forces franchises to step up their game.

BITTER BREW: Tim Hortons says it's hiring Canadians again — but these GTA stores still favour foreign workers 🍁 We brought our big, beautiful billboard truck to the Toronto and Aurora locations. Our message: Don't give Tim Hortons another dollar. Rebel News recently dropped by a couple of Tim Hortons stores in the Greater Toronto Area — one in North Toronto and one in Aurora. We didn’t pay a visit to grab a cup of coffee or a box of Timbits. Rather, we were there to prove that Tim Hortons recently served up a whopper of a lie. Tims, which is owned by a Brazilian hedge fund called 3G Capital, has faced growing pressure to change its hiring practices. Despite being Canada’s largest foodservice company, Tim’s has been exploiting the Temporary Foreign Worker Program to hire noncitizens. Alas, Tims has suffered some bad PR due to these hiring practices. And so it was that Tims went into damage control mode recently. Tims' CEO publicly stated that the company is going to go back to hiring Canadian workers again. That’s fantastic news! Except for one hitch: It’s fake news. That’s because the CEO was lying through his teeth. Indeed, he recently personally registered as a lobbyist to keep Canada's immigration laws as loose as possible — so that Tim’s could continue exploiting the TFW Program. While the company claims it is now hiring Canadians, Tims is STILL all-in when it comes to hiring cheap foreign labour. As if a multi-billion-dollar foodservice conglomerate needs corporate welfare in the first place! And yes, we have the proof. It’s right there in black and white on the federal government's Temporary Foreign Worker Program website. There are some 90 active Tim Hortons jobs from coast to coast up for grabs. Clearly, Tim’s is still hiring foreigners rather than Canadians, despite their false pronouncements. So we brought our big, beautiful billboard truck to the Toronto and Aurora locations. Our message: Don't give Tim Hortons another dollar. Rather, sign our boycott campaign by visiting This company is shameless. Sure, Tim Hortons likes to wrap itself in the Maple Leaf. Yes, it’s delighted to sell food and beverages to Canadians. It just doesn’t like to hire Canadian citizens. It’s outrageous. With so many people unemployed, with youth unemployment at record levels, and with the summer job becoming a thing of the past, does Tims' strategy seem ethically or morally right to you? We wonder what the dearly departed legendary hockey player that the chain is named after would say about this sad state of affairs? P.S. Check out the streeters we did. While many customers condemned Tim Hortons, others wanted to shoot the messenger, deeming our campaign "racist." Those people, by the way, self-identified as supporters of the Mark Carney Liberals. To which we say, golly, whatever happened to “elbows up”?

Tim Hortons lobbied to replace Canadian workers — now it’s time to replace them Tim Hortons says they can’t find workers. Meanwhile, Canadian kids can’t find jobs, and instead of fixing that, Tim Hortons went to Ottawa asking for permission to replace them. In a May 27, 2024, lobbying letter to then immigration minister Marc Miller, Tim Hortons admits: “without international workers and international students... business would struggle immensely.” Then comes the ask: raise the Temporary Foreign Worker cap from 20% to 30%. That’s nearly one in three workers not being Canadian — but they didn’t stop there. The company also pushed for a dedicated food service immigration stream with a pathway to permanent residency, locking in a permanent replacement workforce. At the same time, they want international students working up to 30 hours a week — hours that used to belong to Canadian teenagers trying to get their first job. And here’s the most infuriating part: Tim Hortons openly admits these jobs matter. They say these jobs help “develop a wide range of skills and build promising careers” and serve as “a stepping stone to integrate into our country.” Exactly. That’s why those jobs used to go to Canadian kids. Instead, youth unemployment is climbing, with nearly one in five young Canadians struggling to find work. Entry-level jobs, the first rung on the ladder, are disappearing. Strip away the corporate language and it’s simple: lower wages, replace local workers, and lock in a dependent labour pool. No jobs for our kids? No money from us. It’s time for a boycott. REPORT by Sheila Gunn Reid:

Tim Hortons claims to prioritize hiring Canadians but job postings tell a different story Tim Hortons has positioned itself as a Canadian icon, wrapping itself in the flag while simultaneously lobbying the government to expand and entrench the Temporary Foreign Worker (TFW) program. Lately, it seems Tim Hortons has been feeling the fall out of their deteriorating brand. As Dunkin’ Donuts announces its expansion into Canada, the once Canadian staple now claims it will commit to hiring local — whatever that means. However, their active job listings on the government of Canada’s Job Bank tell a difference story. Tim Hortons currently has roughly 800 active postings recruiting temporary foreign workers across the country, including management roles paying up to $36 per hour. One such posting for the rural, southeastern Ontario Havelock location was removed only recently. As Rebel News continues to expose Tim Hortons’ heavy reliance on the TFW program — which is nothing against the workers themselves who are simply navigating a system ripe for exploitation — this has triggered tough questions about corporate priorities while Canadian youth struggle with a growing jobs crisis. One in five young Canadians report being unable to find an entry-level job, and positions such as a counter worker at Tim Hortons used to give those entry-level opportunities to youth. Instead, many locations now appear dominated by temporary, foreign staff. Street interviews at the Tim Hortons location in Havelock revealed strong public sentiment toward hiring Canadians first. “I think it’s terrible,” said one patron, on the influx of foreign labour. “We’ve got to stay true to our core as well. When we lose the balance, we fail as a humanity.” Another local resident observed: “I just know that these are the type of positions that kids can start off working… I go to my local Tim Hortons, I don’t see that population being represented.” Several interviewees admitted they now avoid the chain when possible, citing a feeling that it has become “foreign” to them and lamenting the lack of alternatives in rural areas with drive-thrus. One current employee confirmed the skewed staffing reality, noting scheduling practices that place more English-speaking staff during the busy morning rush, with TFWs often assigned to later shifts. Tim Hortons has responded to this scrutiny not with greater transparency, but by trespassing Rebel News journalists, including Ezra Levant and David Menzies, across multiple locations. During this Havelock report, Ontario Provincial Police were dispatched after store owners complained that two female journalists were speaking to customers. This is another perfect example of how Tim Hortons locations are abusing resources, especially in a small community without it’s own police force. Canadians already pour hundreds of millions of dollars into the TFW program every year, and now they’re forced to foot the bill for police to handle fallout from critical media coverage too. As Canada enters a ‘technical’ recession and youth unemployment is rising, the core issue remains pretty straightforward: entry-level service jobs that once built work experience for Canadian teens and young adults are now being sidelined by a federal program meant for genuine labour shortages. “Put Canadians first,” was the repeated message from the sidewalk. “Hire Canadians before foreign workers. I don’t have anything against people coming to our country… but it also shouldn’t be on the backs of Canadians. And especially Canadian youth.” Tim Hortons’ actions continue to test whether a national brand still believes its future lies with the communities it serves or with cheaper, temporary labour that undercuts them. The public is watching. REPORT by Tamara Ugolini 🇨🇦:

Why is a St. Catharines Tim Hortons proudly displaying a legal threat letter sent to Rebel News? We were tipped off that a Tim Hortons location in St. Catharines, Ont., had posted the legal threat letter that was sent to us on June 1. So, we paid them a visit with our big, beautiful billboard truck in tow. You may recall our recent reports regarding Tim Hortons, exposing the company for lying through its teeth at a recent presser. Tim Hortons implied they would go back to hiring Canadian citizens, which would be great news if only it were true. Alas, Tims is still making use of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program! If you check out the federal government’s job board, Tims currently has about 90 positions available under this program. Sure, Tim Hortons loves selling to Canadians. But hiring Canadians? Not so much. Tims was not amused by our coverage. And so, they decided to play hardball. The company was so infuriated that they sent Rebel News a legal letter. We were informed that Rebel News staffers are essentially persona non grata at all Canadian Tim Hortons. Yours truly was especially singled out, as Tims' legal eagle noted that I am now banned for life from going to any Tim Hortons store in Canada! We’re not making this up! Here’s an excerpt from that letter: "David Menzies, due to past behaviour, is not, for any reason, permitted access to the premises, including parking lots, landscaped areas, and drive-thrus of any Tim Hortons restaurant in Canada, any and all manufacturing and distribution facilities owned or operated by TDL across Canada and the Tim Hortons offices in Montreal, Calgary and Toronto." Overreaction much? But here’s the thing: We were tipped off that a Tim Hortons location in St. Catharines, Ont., was proudly displaying the legal threat letter that was sent to us on June 1. How bizarre! Why would they do that? Is it to further a vendetta in a most juvenile fashion? Apparently, head office sent a copy of that letter to all stores. It seems that it is up to the franchisee whether to display it. But again, what’s the ostensible policy reason? To name and shame us? To put customers on high alert so that, if they see me in the parking lot or drive-thru, they will call 9-1-1? How pathetic can you get? Well, if Tim Hortons is dropping the gloves, then so be it. We recently paid a visit to that particular St. Catharines Tims with our big, beautiful billboard truck in tow, to name and shame Tims for its lies regarding the Temporary Foreign Workers Program. As it turns out, just a few klicks away from that St. Catharines Tim Hortons restaurant is where Tim Horton himself, the man, died. Tim was killed in a single-vehicle car crash on February 21, 1974. He was a member of the Buffalo Sabres at the time, and he was driving back to Buffalo after a game against his old team, the Toronto Maple Leafs. Tim's legacy lives on in the restaurant chain that bears his name. Yet, we wonder: Would he be proud of what it has become? The donuts are no longer baked from scratch. The restaurants are not clean — don’t even dare venture into the washrooms. Canadian citizens are passed over for jobs in favour of noncitizens. And now the corporate bigwigs are banning independent journalists who have the temerity to report the truth. No, Tim Horton, the man, would not be proud of what has become of Tim Hortons, the restaurant chain. In fact, we think he’s now rolling in his grave. Report by David Menzies
