Vilification of Tim Hortons and Ontario Small Businesses another bleak sign Canada is in a slow lockstep march towards socialistic collapse
Leave it to the premier of Ontario and Canada's state broadcaster to stoke anti-business ire by using Canada's once-beloved homegrown coffee chain as their scapegoat.

What Was Wrong With CBC’s ‘The National’ Sunday Night (October 29, 2017)
Mission Statement for “What Was Wrong With The National”: During the last federal election campaign, Justin Trudeau promised to give the CBC additional funding if he became PM.
