Why do Canadians online seem to hate Tim Hortons?
-
Because its garbage. Decades back they had good coffee, fresh in store baked donuts, and good deals. Now is bland coffee, trucked in food that is garbage, and expensive. Nothing good about it anymore.
And it pretends at being a Canadian staple when in reality it hasn’t been Canadian in ages

Maybe I’m just too chronically online, but people seem to complain a lot more about Tim Hortons than other fast food places. Even though they have a lot of the same issues.
Edit: I guess I have bad taste in fast food. I like Tims
️. I think the prices are reasonable for fast food, and their stuff tastes better than mcDonalds. I don’t drink coffee much so I can’t compare to other places. I can get why people don’t like the company itself though.Because it’s terrible. The food is terrible, they treat their employees terribly, the employees are understandably terrible themselves and the whole thing is shoved down our throats as

It was better then, yes. They still operated as a bakery at that point.
They started centralizing the baked goods production in the 90s, after Wendy’s bought them.

Hm I did not know that. The one I went to most frequently definitely still had a bakery, as a guy I knew had a bakery job there that would start in the ungodly early morning hours.

I can get why people don’t like the company itself though.Because it’s just not very good anymore. Their coffee is acceptable again, but their donuts are mediocre, and most of their food is just okay. I still like the breakfast sandwiches, though. And Timmies really tried to make their identity about how Canadian they are and that is not true at all anymore, so Canadians feel a little betrayed too. (This is not about their employees, but rather the fact that it they are now owned by an foreign private equity firm.)
The TFW thing is quite bad IMO, but specifically because they are exploiting those workers to an even greater degree by holding continued employment (and thus presence in Canada) over their heads.
