The US is a narco-state. Always has been. Should tariff them until the Sackler family are serving life.

It’s why they could not win “The War on Drugs”.
ahem You're welcome?
They love their coke fotos.
Can those guys not secure their own borders?
World’s largest defence budget and where does it go?
Sad.
If they want maple syrup and real egg sandwiches they should get their borders under control.
They don't care about drug trafficking. Donald wouldn't have pardoned one of the biggest violent drug kingpins otherwise.
I feel like maybe we should tariff this country to hell for not preventing all these drugs and guns coming over from their border?
Wait, what's a "real egg sandwich"?
Possibly my favourite Doug Ford moment. Taking time out of his press conference to shill Tim Hortons

Edit: omg that channel has some golden moments. How could I forget Doug Ford swallows a bee
Once we've dealt with our current outbreak of fascism, someone needs to send that man to Tudor's Biscuit World. Tim Horton's can't compete with that particular fast food chain.
Edit: I live in San Diego, and every time I'm back in the South East, I stop and get Tudor's.
TBF, Tim's is amazing. As far as chain places go, it's got way better food and coffee than Dunkin (though Dunkin's wins in the donut category). I never say no to Tim's.
I don't know about amazing… but perfectly adequate.
Their doughnuts are fine, and are always fresh with the Always Fresh™ system, but not as good as in the old days, or old Robin's Doughnuts. But they're fine, and pretty cheap. You can probably get much better doughnuts at a local bakery, but it will almost certainly be somewhat more expensive. They ditched the Long John though! An insult to BC. Typical Ontario based chain.
Some coffee snobs will dump on their coffee, but it's okay. You'll rarely hear any sincere complaints from habitual coffee drinkers. There is some stiff competition on the fast food coffee front though, McDonald's scooped their old coffee supplier, and lots of people do seem to prefer McDonald's coffee now. I still give the nod to Timmie's though.
Overall, I figure Timmie's is a solid B+ among fast food chains. There are a few gems on their menu though, their steeped tea is solid. I guess technically you could get better tea at David's Tea, but there is only one of those left, and besides for a basic "builder's tea" it's just a good value.
I mean, you can't really compare chain coffee to ye olde local shop. They both have their time and place. But yeah, B+ is pretty accurate. I really enjoy their habanero chicken wrap and cheese twists. Also agree that McD has weirdly good coffee for a chain, but I try to avoid them in general.
TBF, I've also been to a lot of local shops that use horribly burnt coffee, so they're more of a wildcard than a guarantee. Tims is consistent and fucking everywhere
Good point on the consistency. Timmie's coffee is very consistent. Regardless of your personal opinions on Timmie's coffee in general, you can be certain that the coffee you get tomorrow in Kapuskasing will be the same as the coffee you got yesterday in Kitimat.
Not Canadian but I like how he calls it "Timmy's"
Most of us do. :)
A sandwich with eggs from a chicken, instead of the traditional Murican Haribo Egg sandwich.
Maybe we need some tariffs against the USA until they clean up their act along the border?
I mean we get more fentanyl from them already. Not to mention all the fucking guns.
Canada needs to stop subsidizing the US with its fentanyl trade deficit
Same deal down here in Mexico with the fucking guns. Literally why we have cartels here with high powered weapons.
Let's add another 25% on top of our tarrifs for the US until they fix their border, bunch of amateurs
We need to build a wall to keep muricans out!
We should be calling the US media to run stories about the problem Canada has with drugs coming over its southern border.
Maybe we should build a wall..
...and let 'murica pay for it.
To save money and storage, you can use the bricks of cocaine intercepted at the border .. silver lining.
So .. sanctions and tariffs?
Cocaine & poutine!
Best party ever (in the evidence locker, after hours?)
Well, what does Trump have to say for himself? Why is this somehow not his fault but would be any other leader's fault?
He only knows how to blame others and can dish it out but. He can’t take it though, just like every bully that ever existed. He can call our PM governor and call into question our border and our sovereignty with the largest platform on earth but he can’t face the reality that they harm us with their guns and drugs and they can’t handle that our PM called him by his name, and not his honorary title. The US is a craven, pathetic, fash country.
Call him Capo Trump. He'd probably think it's a compliment.
Calling prime minister Trudeau "governor" is fine but calling president Trump "Donald" is too far.
He doesn’t care, it’s just drowned out in the noise of controversy.
It makes great television.
The firehose of illegal drugs and guns just pouring in to Canada from the US is a national security issue for Canada. We should and must act accordingly.
Add 50% tarrifs to US imports until the US figures its drugs issues out
And we're keeping the cocaine
For security reasons we are going to have to up our tariffs.
We should raise tariffs each time a illegal weapon is found coming from the US that will be a augmentation of 1000% tariffs before the week-end
Trumps wall seems to only have one-way doors on them, eh?
Keep your guns and drugs out of our country!
