Up in Canada, we’ve got a few traditions you Yanks lack. These include: marginalizing natives to the point of irreversible alcoholism, beating baby seals over the head with wooden bats, and free health care. We’ve also got a fast food chain much like Dunkin Donuts, but instead of pink branding and greasy cheese sandwiches, ours has homestyle warmth, and a menu peppered with comforting soups and hearty sandwiches. It’s called Tim Hortons—it’s a symbol of national pride, a cultural fixture, and it’s coming to New York.
Sad, but true, though I’m pretty sure Americans are equally adept at the whole marginalising of natives thing.
As for the Tim Horton’s thing: The coffee sucks, but it’s so cheap that it doesn’t matter, and the presence of soup/chili in a bread bowl on the menu makes up for it.
