I'm just curious.
If you met this guy on the street, would you know who he is?
Please answer.
Posts like this are an indication we need a casual conversation community on lemmy.ca. This isn't a c/Canada post imo

MODERATORS
I mean it takes literally a minute to make one if it's something that bothers you
You are correct. I'm not really much of a casual conversation person myself, so I don't think I'm the best person to moderate it. I moderate other communities and actively contribute to Lemmy. Someone else might see my comment and think, "hey I'd like to do that"
I'd posted a couple times in !chatter@lemmy.ca but it hadn't caught on. Would be good to start a new community for this.
Very unlikely I’d meet him on the street these days unless I was in Switzerland.
He looks a lot older than the last picture I saw of him.
No, I wouldn't have recognized him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jorge/_Paulo/_Lemann
Owner of Tim Hortons, Heinz, Anheuser-Busch InBev, and Burger King. Damn, he must work really hard managing all of those giant corporations!
I can only assume this is Tim Hortons
I do, because I’m from Brazil and lots of my friends worked for Ambev, so they revere this man as a living god just like the average Amazon manager does for Jeff Bezos.
yes, he is recognizable for a lot of people here in Brasil. Unfortunately, not everyone despises him as we should
I wouldn't recognize him, although I've griped about Tims wrapping itself in the flag after the sale.
