  • Because Tim Hortons is the Burger King of Canada, after all they merge …

    At the Beginning Tim Horton (the hockey player) started a pretty decent Dunkin Donuts like restaurant but at some point his actioneers oust him and he died without money for what he build. Now Tim Horton’s at this time was still something okay I guess, in Montreal language watchdogs asked Tim Horton’s to comply with French Language Law which they refuse and transforme the Tim Horton’s to Tim Hortons (because now it’s a name I guess).

    Like you can see they always were shitty corporate citizen

    Somewhere in the 2010s McDonald Canada tried to stole their market parts with better coffee and donuts. They partially succeeded because Tim Hortons at the time did great pub to bolster patriotic sentiment (they appears in How I met Your Mother after all). Since then they never really tried to be better and after that they merged with Burger King









  • Finally a « media » that say what we already know :

    Every single one of these [27] workers, expressed a common belief that Air Canada had been in contact with the CIRB before the strike was declared, and that the government was prepared to intervene prior to the strike commencing. The union itself has not endorsed this view, noting it remains unverified. […]

    Michael Rousseau, the CEO of Air Canada seemed to be completely blindsided. “We thought, obviously, Section 107 would be enforced, and that they wouldn’t illegally avoid (it),” he said in an interview with Bloomberg. In the interview, he admitted that he had made no provisions for the passengers who are currently stranded. […]

    Canadian law provides that any individuals who are stranded in the event of a strike are owed a fully paid flight back on another airline, regardless of whether they have an inter-airline agreement or not. It is encouraged by experts to refuse any offer of a refund, since other airlines have exponentially increased their prices to take advantage of consumers who don’t know their legal rights. […]









  • Before the strike begin AirCanada tried to strand most of it’s flight attendants work force in other country with no way home. After that they lied to their workers saying that if workers worked their flight home they will be paid, pressed by the Union and Strike Watchdog they finally admit that they had no intention to pay and that their work force were not protected by their collective agreement.

    When the Union tried to plan the operation closing in an orderly fashion with them, they ghost the union negotiator and wait that the cluster fuck begin to crawl to Patty Hajdu, Carney’s work minister, to pull out of her ass a fucking old law that’s borderline anticonstitutionnal.

    In the end the only responsible force behind this shit is AirCanada.
