Wasn't it another Liberal government that decided to tax subsidized meals like McDonald employees have?
Kathleen Wynne deals major blow to Tim Hortons
- Thread starter mentalfloss
- Start date
I'd be willing to pay 15-20 more cents for my coffee at Timmy's, if it would get these franchise owners off the backs of their hard-woorking employees.
avro24,
Are you the fruit who pays $7.00 for a Starbuck's tall grande, with an expresso shot, a twist of lemon in a double cup?

Tim Hortons' corporate parent is blaming 'rogue franchisees' for a backlash against the chain in the wake of minimum wage hikes. (Evan Mitsui/CBC)
Restaurant Brands International, the multinational fast food giant that owns Tim Hortons, has snapped back at what it calls a "rogue group" of franchise owners.
The company's statement came as more employees at more locations revealed they're losing perks in cuts by owners who blame Ontario's minimum wage hike.
RBI said Friday: "There are several things that make the Tim Hortons brand truly unique, like our connection to our communities and the great relationship our restaurant owners and their team members have with our guests.
"It saddens all of us to see that jeopardized by the recent news stories and comments on social media, caused by the actions of a reckless few."
It is the most strongly worded response from the Tim Hortons corporate parent since news broke that franchisees were cutting employees' paid breaks, benefits and other perks in response to Ontario's minimum wage hike, which rose $2.40 per hour to $14 per hour on Jan. 1.
Time for a Timmies Boycott!!

It's difficult for him to be the bully when he doesn't own or control all the franchises.
Wynne's cheap shot was politically motivated. She tried and failed to deflect the blame about the impact of the wage hike.
It's like every political thing that can be wrong or go wrong is part of Wynne.

NO!! You can’t beat oven fresh..
Not day old Tim Horton donuts.. Dunken Donuts are better than Timmies
Pay them the $15/hr maybe then they will get my f*cking order correct
Neither one can be replaced by machines except for the basic repetitive stuff. Which is really hard to get people to do for extended periods.

I bought Krispy Kremes for the guys in the shop for the days leading up to Christmas. They evaporated in seconds!
I've been to a few small shops beat all the franchise joints. Perk's in Campbell River is far superior and so popular they run out of apple fritters by about 11 am. Just can't keep up. Same with the bakery in Qualicum Beach, supplies a few gas stations but can't keep up and can't or won't expand.
The best coffee in Kap, and a great short order cook for lunch ....
