Welcome Back: Tim Hortons Makes Return To Canada
By: Ainsley Brown
Yes, you read right, Tim Hortons is back in Canada. I like most of you never knew it went anywhere.
I know what you are thinking: Ainsley, you must either be playing a prank, or going crazy or were you just up late and tired and in desperate of a double double because I just brought some Timbits from TIM HORTONS yesterday and they were tasty. Well let me assure you this is no joke, I am not going crazy, and while I could do with a double double it was after all early in the Moring when I penned this piece.
Tim Hortons, the iconic Canadian Coffee shop, is now once again back on Canadian soil. Today due to a merger and re-organization of the company Tim Hortons is now a company incorporated under Canadian law – the Canadian Business Corporations Act.
The shareholders in a Special Meeting of Stockholders last week approved the move back to Canada from Delaware. Approximately 74% of the common shares – those endowed with voting rights – voted with a whopping 99% approval of the repatriation back to Canada.
This is great news! … one by one we’ll get the Canadian business back 😉
