Tim Hortons is on this list but is majority owned by Americans (Burger King, specifically IIRC).

It’s owned by Restaurant Brands International which is headquartered in Toronto, but listed in both Toronto and New York stock exchange. The majority owned is 3G capital, a Brazilian firm.

I would highly recommend locally-owned coffee shops anyway. They’re just better.

This is cool and informative, but I’ll be using this more like as a tool to avoid chains than anything else lol. Well, except Cora.

If you’re on the hunt for a Pizza chain in Vancouver, Captains Oven is a small chain (4 units?) that I enjoy.
