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:show more

Why won't they hire Canadians? Act For Alberta truck warns Tim Hortons: 'not a pathway to citizenship' Fast-food chains like Tim Hortons are abusing a program designed for temporary labour — not as a permanent staffing model for multinational corporations. The Act for Alberta billboard truck made a pit stop at Tim Hortons this week with a message that hit harder than a double-double when you're under-caffeinated: “Tim Hortons should not be a pathway to citizenship.” The truck rolled through a Tim’s drive-thru plastered with criticism of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program and the company’s reliance on it, highlighting growing frustration from Albertans who feel locked out of entry-level jobs that used to belong to students and young workers. And the numbers are ugly. Youth unemployment for Canadians aged 15 to 19 is hovering around 20%, according to recent labour market data. That means one in five Canadian teenagers looking for work can’t find it. Meanwhile, major fast-food chains continue bringing in temporary foreign workers for jobs that generations of Canadian kids once used to get their start in the workforce. The TFW program was intended for true TEMPORARY labour shortages, not as a permanent staffing model for multinational corporations. Act For Alberta is a registered third-party advertiser promoting Alberta independence. Act For Alberta says Tim Hortons has become one of the most visible symbols of the problem: a Canadian icon increasingly staffed through immigration streams while young Canadians struggle to land basic part-time work. The stunt drew plenty of attention from customers in the drive-thru, many honking and taking photos of the truck as it made its coffee run.

Tim Hortons says it's putting Canadians first — but is it really? With Tim Hortons saying it vows to hire more “local” staff, Rebel News investigated a Montreal location that was listed on a government job portal for businesses seeking to hire temporary foreign workers. Tim Hortons recently announced plans to hire up to 10,000 local employees and reduce its reliance on the Temporary Foreign Worker Program. However, a closer look at publicly available government data raises questions about whether that shift is already taking place. Several Tim Hortons locations continue to appear on the federal government's temporary foreign worker job portal, actively advertising positions for foreign workers. This comes at a time when Canada's unemployment rate has climbed to 6.9%, while youth unemployment is hovering around 14%. The issue raises broader questions about priorities in the Canadian labour market. With more Canadians struggling to find work and economic uncertainty looming, some are asking whether available jobs should be offered to Canadian workers first. During a visit to a Tim Hortons location in downtown Montreal, multiple job openings were found being advertised, including positions offering wages of up to $39 per hour. Another detail that stood out was that some of the postings appeared to be open to applicants who speak only English, rather than requiring French or bilingualism. That has sparked questions about language requirements in Quebec, where French is the official language. The situation comes as Tim Hortons faces growing scrutiny over its use of temporary foreign workers and its role in providing entry-level employment opportunities. For many Canadians, particularly young people, jobs at restaurants and coffee shops often serve as a first step into the workforce, providing valuable experience and skills. As debates continue over immigration levels, Canadians are left to decide whether Tim Hortons is living up to its promise of putting local workers first. Rebel News

💥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!

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…

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 🍁🚛:

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 🇨🇦:

🚨 BREAKING Tim Hortons franchisees lobbied CABINET directly to ease restrictions on foreign workers. Their argument? 63,000 jobs would go unfilled. They didn’t try raising wages. They didn’t try improving conditions. They spent 18 MONTHS lobbying MPs and ministers to import cheaper labour. They wanted the TFW cap raised from 10% to 30%. They wanted a fast-track “Nexus-style” system to skip the normal approval process. And cabinet said yes! Meanwhile: -Youth unemployment: 14.1% -Student unemployment: 18% -47,000 young Canadians lost their jobs in February -A federal memo confirmed that “large numbers” of foreign workers CAUSED the youth jobs crisis Every time the market is about to force employers to pay more, the government opens the tap on foreign workers to keep labour cheap. Another failed Liberal corporate welfare scam. Except this one hurts Canadians. Ridiculous.

☕ Tim Hortons just got caught red-handed. For 18 months they lobbied Ottawa hard to raise the Temporary Foreign Worker cap from 20% to 30%. They swore they couldn’t find Canadians to work the counter. Then Dunkin’ announces 700 new Canadian locations… and suddenly Tim’s “commits” to hiring 10,000 locals? Senior federal sources say they’re **still** asking for TFWs. Meanwhile, Canadian youth unemployment just hit **14.3%** — the highest non-recession level since 1997. Foreign work permit holders nearly doubled in a decade (530k → 960k+), many funneled into low-wage service jobs with no requirement to prove a Canadian wanted the position first. This wasn’t a “labour shortage.” It was a **wage decision**. Tim’s used cheap foreign labour to suppress pay while Canadians got shut out. Now competition shows up and the “shortage” magically disappears. Enough. The TFWP has been abused long enough. Canadian kids deserve those entry-level jobs. What do you think — real change or just another PR stunt to protect their monopoly? Drop your thoughts below 👇 #TimHortons #TFWP #YouthUnemployment #CanadaFirst #cdnpoli

Tim Hortons is trying to bully us into silence — but we've got a plan to fight back Tim Hortons is trying desperately to shut us up — they’ve called the police on our reporters three times, and now they just had their lawyers file a legal complaint against us, trying to get our store banned off of the internet. For two weeks, we’ve been telling the truth about Tim Hortons and their gross plans to hire foreign workers instead of young Canadians. Our reporting has been a problem for them, because they’ve just started a huge PR campaign to rebrand themselves as Canadian — likely because Dunkin’ Donuts is about to open up hundreds of locations in Canada later this year. Tim Hortons thinks it can win back customers by pretending to be Canadian. But we discovered that, even though Tim Hortons says they are hiring Canadians, they are still actively bringing foreign workers to Canada by using the government’s Temporary Foreign Worker program. So we went to some of those Tim Hortons locations with job listings and asked them why they claim to be hiring locals when, in fact, they are still hiring foreigners. Why lie? One of those Tim Hortons managers lied about it, saying he didn’t know anything about it, while I was literally holding his restaurant's ad for foreigners in my hands. So they courageously kicked us off the property, saying we couldn’t talk to any store managers or owners anymore. They thought maybe that would stop us from exposing their lies. Yeah, no. We kept reporting on their plans to import hundreds of foreign workers. We talked to people going to the Tim Hortons drive-through — and 100% agreed: stop hiring foreigners; hire Canadians instead. Well, that made them go nuts. They had their top lawyer send us a threat letter, telling us that if we go back to ask any more questions, they “will report the trespass to police and pursue all available remedies, including charges under the application act and civil action.” Translation: if we ask them any more questions, they’ll call the cops, press charges, and sue us in civil court, too. Have you ever seen a more thin-skinned bully than Tim Hortons? By the way, it’s obvious why they’re panicking — they’re literally the number one user of foreign workers of any restaurant chain in the country. They are the worst of the worst. Well, obviously, we don’t stop our journalism just because some corporate lawyer threatens us. So we went out again and again and again — but, because we respect private property, we just stood on the public sidewalk. Even still, the crazed lunatics at Tim Hortons literally called the police. I say again: our reporters didn’t go in. Didn’t even come close. They just stood with the Tim Hortons in the background — and these bullies called 911. Can you believe it? They have a corporate PR crisis, independent journalists are exposing their lies about hiring Canadian, and somehow they think that calling the police is the solution? To do what? Arrest us? Put us in jail? Did you know that Tim Hortons is now owned by a Brazilian hedge fund called 3G? Maybe that’s how it works in Brazil — if you criticize a large company, the police will harass you. But we’re in Canada now, hombre. They threatened us with a lawsuit. We didn’t stop. They threatened to call the police. We didn’t stop. So today, they lashed out in a new way: they lodged a trademark complaint against Rebel News, trying to get Shopify to ban our merchandise from being sold. This is the shirt they’re complaining about. It’s clearly not made by Tim Hortons; it’s clearly a gentle criticism of Tim Hortons, wishing they were Canadian again, not foreign. And they had their lawyers send a threat letter to Shopify, saying it’s illegal. Well, I know something about trademark law myself. It’s meant to stop people from passing themselves off as the real thing, to stop confusion in the market. So if you set up Tom Hortons, and made it look the same, that would be a trademark violation — because you’re trying to trick people into thinking it’s the real thing. But criticizing Tim Hortons is not a trademark violation. In fact, criticism and satire are specifically permitted under trademark law. This is literally like an editorial cartoon, very gently ribbing Tim Hortons for hiring foreigners instead of Canadians. But now they’ve filed a trademark dispute, a kind of lawsuit, against us at Shopify. And we have to hire lawyers to respond — and to do so within 48 hours, or we could have our t-shirt suspended from the site, and potentially have our whole store shut down. They’re doing whatever they can to destroy us, to stop us from revealing the truth about their foreign worker scam. So what should we do? Should we be like the rest of the media and cheer for Tim Hortons? Of course not. Here’s my plan — and I need your help: Step 1: We’re going to keep doing journalism about Tim Hortons, how they favour foreign workers over Canadians, and all sorts of other unethical conduct we’re digging up about them. Step 2: We’re going to sell a lot more t-shirts and coffee mugs about Tim Hortons. If we have to go to court to teach these bullies a lesson about free speech, so be it. But you never know — if Tim Hortons gets its way, you won’t be able to get these anymore. That would make them hard-to-find collectibles! Anyways, give Tim Hortons the finger by buying the t-shirt that obviously enrages them, the big bullies. Step 3: We’ve got to ramp up our Tims Boycott petition. Last I checked, we have 14,000 signatures on it — but we need ten times as many! If you haven’t signed it yet, please go to REPORT by Ezra Levant 🍁🚛:

Tim Hortons is trying to bully us into silence — but we've got a plan to fight back Tim Hortons is trying desperately to shut us up — they’ve called the police on our reporters three times, and now they just had their lawyers file a legal complaint against us, trying to get our store banned off of the internet. For two weeks, we’ve been telling the truth about Tim Hortons and their gross plans to hire foreign workers instead of young Canadians. Our reporting has been a problem for them, because they’ve just started a huge PR campaign to rebrand themselves as Canadian — likely because Dunkin’ Donuts is about to open up hundreds of locations in Canada later this year. Tim Hortons thinks it can win back customers by pretending to be Canadian. But we discovered that, even though Tim Hortons says they are hiring Canadians, they are still actively bringing foreign workers to Canada by using the government’s Temporary Foreign Worker program. So we went to some of those Tim Hortons locations with job listings and asked them why they claim to be hiring locals when, in fact, they are still hiring foreigners. Why lie? One of those Tim Hortons managers lied about it, saying he didn’t know anything about it, while I was literally holding his restaurant's ad for foreigners in my hands. So they courageously kicked us off the property, saying we couldn’t talk to any store managers or owners anymore. They thought maybe that would stop us from exposing their lies. Yeah, no. We kept reporting on their plans to import hundreds of foreign workers. We talked to people going to the Tim Hortons drive-through — and 100% agreed: stop hiring foreigners; hire Canadians instead. Well, that made them go nuts. They had their top lawyer send us a threat letter, telling us that if we go back to ask any more questions, they “will report the trespass to police and pursue all available remedies, including charges under the application act and civil action.” Translation: if we ask them any more questions, they’ll call the cops, press charges, and sue us in civil court, too. Have you ever seen a more thin-skinned bully than Tim Hortons? By the way, it’s obvious why they’re panicking — they’re literally the number one user of foreign workers of any restaurant chain in the country. They are the worst of the worst. Well, obviously, we don’t stop our journalism just because some corporate lawyer threatens us.

🚨 Conservative MP Michelle Rempel Garner just called out Tim Hortons — they’re STILL begging for temporary foreign workers even after launching their big “hire local” campaign. While Canadian youth unemployment is in crisis and plenty of locals want the jobs, Tim Hortons keeps asking Ottawa for more TFWs. Rempel nailed it: we need real labor mobility, skills training, and an end to the temporary foreign worker program (except legitimate seasonal agriculture). Canadians first! Always! Drop a 🔥 if you’re tired of big chains choosing cheap foreign labor over our own kids and workers.

Kelowna Tim Hortons posts Rebel News ban on its front door — here's what customers said Tim Hortons has spent weeks trying to silence Rebel News with trespass orders and legal threats, but each failed attempt has only revealed more about the so-called "Canadian" coffee chain's foreign hiring policies. A tipster recently reached out to let me know that a particularly thin-skinned Tim Hortons location in West Kelowna has taken things to a whole new level, posting a trespass notice aimed at Rebel News right on its front door for every customer to see. Apparently, management thought that publicly announcing Rebel News was unwelcome would somehow stop us from reporting on the chain's continued reliance on Temporary Foreign Workers at a time when many Canadians are struggling to find work. So I made my way to that location to ask passersby the important question Tim Hortons despises: Is it time for Tim Hortons to abandon its foreign-worker-first agenda and start putting Canadians first? The responses were revealing. I spoke with an 18-year-old who told me he'd been looking for work, including at Tim Hortons, for three months without success. I also heard from residents who had already noticed the anti-Rebel News sign for themselves and disapproved. In contrast, one passerby defended the current system, arguing that "us Punjabis" deserve the jobs and adding that "the natives were here first." I tried to tell him that Canada's foreign worker program doesn’t incentivize hiring Indigenous Canadians either, but he drove off in a hurry. Despite Tim Hortons' efforts to shut down scrutiny, Canadians are still willing to talk about the issue. And Rebel News will continue asking the question the coffee giant seems determined to avoid.

“Canada added 54,000 jobs in November” 🤣🤣🤣 The truth is, the "job growth" is ALL from part-time jobs. We lost 9,000 full time jobs! That's two months in a row, of nearly 10,000 full time jobs lost. And again, nearly half of the growth came from Alberta. Want to know why part-time jobs are up and unemployment going down? Because we're letting in 50% fewer temporary foreign workers and 70% less from the low-wage stream. Companies now have to hire Canadian youth again. All because they finally started paying attention to the Conservative policies we have been asking for, FOR YEARS.

So here’s Patty Hajdu, Canada’s Jobs Minister, explaining why it’s totally fine that young Canadians can’t find work. She actually said this: “Temporary foreign workers are about 70% less than a few months ago. Low-wage TFWs are less than 1% of the workforce.” Sounds good, right? But then in the very next breath she admitted the program is still “critical” in areas with low unemployment, the kind of loophole that allows McDonald’s and Tim Hortons to keep importing cheap foreign labor while Canadian kids sit at home without jobs. And when she was pressed on that abuse, she didn’t deny it. She bragged that the process is “onerous.” Employers have to post on the Job Bank for four weeks, pay a fee, do an interview. Then Ottawa “tracks” the applications. In other words, she defended the bureaucracy, not Canadian workers. But the real kicker came when she was asked about youth unemployment. She admitted it’s spiking, but shrugged it off with a metaphor: “Many economists say youth are the canary in the coal mine.” The canary in the coal mine? Imagine being twenty years old, can’t find a job, rent’s through the roof, and your government calls you a canary. So let’s translate this. If you’re a Temporary Foreign Worker, life is good, Ottawa built an entire program to protect your job. If you’re a Liberal insider, life is even better, you get the contracts and the consultants’ fees. But if you’re a young Canadian? You’re the canary in the coal mine. That’s not a jobs plan. That’s contempt.

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

Announcing a new Tim Hortons whistleblower website! We’ve just launched a new website, called and it’s exactly what it sounds like. It’s a place for whistleblowers — especially people who work inside Tim Hortons — to confidentially tell us the truth about what Tim Hortons is doing, especially with its unfair labour practices and its obsession with hiring foreign workers instead of Canadians. If you’re a customer with a horror story, you can also file that complaint right there, too. There are other things you can do at — you can see our latest news reports on Tim Hortons’ bad behaviour; and you can sign our petition, pledging not to eat there. And there’s a fun part to it, also: Tim Hortons was furious that we were criticizing them, so they threatened us with a lawsuit. They think that will shut us up. So, on we’re going to fight back, the Canadian way — with a sense of humour and free speech. We’re having an official Tim Hortons meme contest — make your best “meme” about Tim Hortons. It can be about anything. The decline in quality of their food, for example. Some of the hygiene problems their stores have recently had. But the main thing we care about is their terrible corporate decision to hire foreign workers instead of Canadians. It can be a still image or a video; it can be commentary or an AI movie. Your imagination is the only limit! And on July 1 — Canada Day, or as Tim Hortons calls it, Hire Foreigners Day — we’ll announce the winners, and we’ll have real prizes for the best memes, including great Rebel News merch — and a cash prize of $250 for the top meme. Challenging Tim Hortons is serious business. If they’re willing to abuse their own staff, you can imagine what they’re trying to do to us. They already had Gowlings — a law firm with nearly 1,500 lawyers — threaten us. Well, the truth is a defence, and that’s what is all about. If you’re an insider, tell us what’s going on. If you’re a customer, tell us about your experience with a once-great company. If you’re a citizen, sign the petition promising not to eat there anymore, until they change their ways. And if you’ve got a sense of humour, enter our meme contest — you could even win some prizes! REPORT by Ezra Levant 🍁🚛:

While social media is flooded with Tim Hortons “food” videos, I have one simple question: WHY?? Why the fuck does anyone still go there? This woman just pulled the lettuce off her bagel sandwich and it looks like it’s been sitting in a swamp for a week. Slimy, brown, rotting, and literally falling apart in her hands. She’s holding it up like evidence in a crime scene. “Count your motherfcn days, Tim Hortons Canada.” And she’s not wrong. We’ve all seen the videos .. wilted lettuce, stale everything, cold “fresh” baked goods, and the same excuses every single time. Meanwhile they keep crying they can’t find workers while importing thousands of TFWs. Canadians used to actually like Tim Hortons. Now it feels like they’re just daring us to keep giving them money for this garbage. Competition is finally coming. Dunkin’ is on the way. Good. Maybe a little fear will force them to stop treating customers like we’re idiots. Until then… why are you still going? Drop a ☕️ 🤢 if you’re done with the Tim Hortons scam. #TimHortons #BoycottTimHortons #CanadianFood #cdnpoli #CanadaFirst

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”?

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.

💥REPORT: Former Tim Horton's manager claims she was advised to slash Canadian youth hours in favour of foreign workers, and that one TFW can replace 3 or 4 students. However, the Government still can't explain why Canada is experiencing a youth job crisis.

Will Poilievre 'name and shame' businesses abusing the immigration system? During a Mississauga press conference, Rebel News publisher Ezra Levant asked Pierre Poilievre if he would "name and shame" businesses prioritizing temporary foreign workers over young Canadians. Levant proposed actions for the Conservative leader, such as a Tim Hortons event or writing to their board, amid criticism that the company extensively employs temporary foreign workers. "There's no downside to these companies hiring foreign workers. But if there was a PR downside, patriotic Canadians said, 'this is enough' ... would you consider naming and shaming in the public domain abusers of the temporary foreign worker program?" Ezra asked. "Yes," Poilievre replied, noting fellow Conservative MP and Shadow Immigration Minister Michelle Rempel Garner has already begun publicizing companies taking advantage of the program. This query concerns a TFW restaurant manager role at Tim Hortons in Singhampton, Ontario, advertised at $36/hour. A similar job posting for Gravenhurst, Ontario, is advertised at $25.10/hour. Since May, ten low-wage job postings for the company have been added to the government's public job bank. The Conservative leader condemned the Liberals for allowing youth unemployment to skyrocket as huge numbers of temporary foreign workers enter Canada. Meanwhile, Canada lost over 40,000 jobs in July, with youth employment (15-24) at 53.6%, the lowest since November 1998. "The Liberals have to answer, why is it that they are shutting our own youth out of jobs and replacing them with low-wage, temporary foreign workers from poor countries who are ultimately being exploited," Poilievre said. A recent CIBC report said youth unemployment in Canada is now at 'recessionary' levels. REPORT by Ezra Levant 🍁🚛:

Hitting peak levels of anger. Our youth, families, they’re all struggling. They can’t get jobs. Food bank use is at an all-time high. And what does our government do? They take our taxes and give $1 billion in child benefits in a single year to foreign workers and international students. Our taxes, for our country. Canadians first!
