Dead Malls of Canada - Page 35

Tim Horton's was welcomed by many when it took Quebec by storm in the late 90s, after years of mediocre Dunkin' Donuts...the food at the latter was basically reheated campbells soup, but the donuts were made on site. So too were the donuts at Tim Hortons. Later, once Tim's had annihilated all competition, they shifted donut production to a centralized factory in Brantford. The quality went right down the fucking toilet. A recent trip to the states had me visiting both Krispy Kreme and Dunkin donuts to taste non-factory donuts.

Tim Whoreton's has sold its soul. They care not one whit for their donuts, which have declined in variety, and the ones remaining have become almost inedible.

The rest of the food served at tim hortons is somehow even worse. The pickup truck crowd loves its timmies so much, some of them even get married there.

I ask you: doesn't this look EXACTLY like the type of people that would get married at Tim Whoreton's?

Dunkin Donuts calls them Munchkins? That's hilarious!

I use to eat the Chili at Timmy's but that has gone to shit in that last couple of years. The sandwitches are like eating cardboard with mystery meat. Donuts are garbage.
No thanks.

This place has gone down the toilet in the past decade.

I had no idea. That seems so strange to me, considering Tim Horton's started just down the QEW in Hamilton. I assume it was at least in the 905 by 2000, no?

Notice how the pillars and floor tiles in Niagara Square Mall and Westmount Shopping Centre Edmonton look similar? It seems like a single interior designer designed the interiors of those, and many others. I hate what they did to those malls, copying the same shit everywhere. The developer and interior designer that thought up this abomination need to be tar and feathered as everything they touched turned to shit.

According to this, Tim Hortons was in Toronto pretty early.

Maybe it was present in Toronto just not as popular until much later.

This is Edmonton's Westmount Mal in the 80s.

This is what it got downgraded to in the 90s. I bet every city has a failed mall with similar looking interiors, I know Edmonton has at least 3 malls looking like this.

Sorry for making you vomit...

“I also have a video of the Elgin mall. Please subscribe to my youtube channel and thank you for watching.”

And the guy drove to London from New York state just to see this crappy mall! A pilgrimage to see Clockzilla would make more sense.
