Tim Hortons yanks Enbridge ads, sparks Alberta backlash

[Curious Cdn]

When is Tims going to pull there counters out of ESSO gas stations?

Do you REALLY think that Tim Horton's has something against petroleum or maybe ... just maybe, they pulled the Embridge advertising because of consumer complaints. Companies are very sensitive to complaining campaigns and some marketing flunky was trying to make it right with their complainers.

It is illogical the Tims has it in for the oil sector or why would they have put Enbridges ads on in the first place? They would certainly have taken a revenue hit by removing the ads and they would not have done so happily.

The real story here is about a sqawky, always complaining and hard-done-by oil patch and the furriners who's always tryin' to git them, somehow.

Ridiculous.

I told you before cc, and I'll tell you again; you don't know what your talking about.

Find a topic you know something about before you babble.

And you are not worth reading. Anyone who comes on a forum like this and calls another poster a POS is such a deeply defective human being to begin with that you likely have nothing worthwhile going on inside your skull.

BTW What is the bald eagle about? You're not even from this country, are you?

I'll bet there was some at one time. We used to love a trucker that hauled material to us, if he messed up unloading the next morning on his first round a big box of doughnuts would fall out of his truck right in front of us. It was beer before that delivered on the last l;oad. Usually that was the start and the next morning the were good odds that somebody would be running late, . . . again.

Oh Grits! Well there it is!

Grits aren't a big staple in New England... at least in Massachusetts. I know when I go to Gettysburg, PA on the Maryland border they are on every menu.

First time I saw a GRIT was when I was a Marine Recruit on Parris Island.

I said to myself...

"Ahhhhh... so that's what grits look like."

 

[petros]

I like gruel.
