      Tim Horton's is also American Owned.

      Boycotting American dominance and takeover and Trumps invasion promise, will SHOCK Canadians at how much of their country has been given away nearly free.

      Boycott Home Depot. Big time. Owners have funded Trump, Trumpism and the far far right for decades

      Home Depot billionaire to fund Trump even if he is convicted

      Republican mega-donor Bernie Marcus said on Tuesday he would likely still give money to Donald Trump's 2024 presidential bid if the former president was convicted of a crime - but the billionaire does not plan to be one of his biggest financial backers.

      Tim Hortons is not American owned.

      Home Depot is a publicly traded company, it doesn’t have an “owner”. Sounds like you are referring to the CEO, which Home Depot has, well had, two. One was a big Trump supporter, but he passed away last year. The current CEO is a Democrat supporter.

      Sounds like you should do more “research”.

        Tim Hortons is owned by Restaurant Brands International, which is itself majority owned by American private equity.

        What makes it not American owned?

              I’m unsure why you think a publically-traded company can’t still be American-owned.

              And it used to be Canadian-owned. Too bad our governments haven’t taken care of keeping Canadian businesses Canadian.

                    Home Hardware has mostly left my area. Thankfully, there’s Rona and a local Tim-Br-Mart that is mostly locally owned and operated, so that’s where I get most stuff.

                        I really hope McyD’s runs away from Canada and new Canadian fast food joints take over. I do not want McDicks to do what A&W did and create a new company that is some other company separate from the US A&W.

                              RBI’s principal executive offices are in Miami, Florida. In North America, RBI’s brands are headquartered in their home markets where they were founded decades ago: Canada for Tim Hortons and the U.S. for Burger King, Popeyes and Firehouse Subs.

                                You’re assuming that those currently holding the shares will sell. But in all fairness, per Wikipedia, a generous chunk of RBI is held by a Brazilian investment company, and former Tim Hortons shareholders still hold some shares, so somewhere between 1/2 and 2/3 American-owned? Which still isn’t great.

                                    Stopped buying McD’s about 6-7yrs ago. I would eat their breakfast all the time. Then I had to make mine at home for reasons for a bit. Noticed I was hungry about a half hour after I ate McD’s but not when I made brekky at home.

                                      While RBI is headquartered in Toronto, Canada, and pays corporate taxes there, it’s often mistakenly perceived as a Canadian company, largely due to the presence of Tim Hortons
