Kay but there's clearly demand for this garbage given how crap Tim Hortons has gotten yet still remains in business.

    It's not Canadian.

    Second Cup and Robin's are though.

    It's as Canadian as any publicly traded company of that size can be. RBI is TSX listed and Toronto headquartered. 3G capital (the "Brazilians" people are referring to when they say that it's Brazilian owned) while still the largest single shareholder, is down to a 26% stake.

    So did Dunkin.

    Now they all sell old mushy donuts that are made hours before you can buy them at a central location.

    I miss old Dunkin. If you walk into a donut shop and it doesn't smell like donuts, turn around and leave.
