reccecrewman said:Global announced on the 5:00 news that the CDS, Gen. Hillier has invited the CEO of Tim Hotons Canada to Kandahar to review the viability of having a Timmies in theatre. So, here it goes. We've discussed it in these forums before - weighed the pros and cons, and now it very may well become reality.
The Gues-|- said:In reply was to have a Tim Horton's in Afghanistan and their second wish was to have a Tim Hortons in Wainwright. After a few chuckles he then made the request of having Tim's CEO come with him to A'stan to review the viability.
Tim Hortons,Wal-mart and one other "big box" store(CT?),has already announced that they will be moving to Wainwright this year with construction starting this summer on a shopping complex across the hwy from Extra Foods.AmmoTech90 said:Well based on my experience in Wainwright, there will be a Timmies in Kandahar before the local town government allows a Timmies in Wainwright to compete with local business. There'll probably be Timmies on the ISS before there's one in Wainwright.

geo said:Hmmm....
Am confused.
The Navy signed a contract so that all coffee served in their messes is Tim Horton official brew.... and the nevy is paying for this.
Now the Army wants Tim Horton's to set up shop on the strip in Kandahar?
Why would Army guys want to pay for the same thing navy guys get for free?
Get the bean counters to slack off a bit and sign up with Timmies....
The CEO can stay home
