Just found out this Wikipedia article where it says its american: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A%26W_Restaurants

But then in there there is a link to this other article where it says that A&W Canada is actually a separate Canadian company: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A%26W_(Canada)

Kind of confusing to be honest but if I understood correctly, it seems like buying in there is not supporting the americans, am I right?

I was kinda wondering when I saw this because I thought it was one of those things yum(pepsi) bought up.

    the american a&w was part of yum brands until it was divested about 15 years ago.. yum itself was originally formed from the merger of pepsi's spun-off restaurant business and the american a&w's parent.
