Tims coffee is boycotted by Canadian people! The reason is vaccination?

When it comes to coffee chain brands, people's first impressions may be Starbucks and Lucky, while Canada, far north of the United States, is proud of its national brand Tim Hortons. Recently, however, this attitude has been reversed by 180 degrees. Canadians are actually launching a campaign to boycott TimHortons, and the hashtag # BoycottTimHortons has caused a lot of heated discussion on Twitter. Some netizens even said that Tims is a disgrace.

With this comment alone, friends may wonder: isn't Tims the national light of Canada? why is it suddenly boycotted when everyone is proud of it?

The hashtag # BoycottTimHortons made the trend list on Twitter on Saturday because TimHortons required participants in its camp to be vaccinated, according to Newsweek.

Tamara Ugolini, a participant in the Tim Hortons Foundation Camp (Tim Hortons Foundation Camps), received an email a few weeks ago, which wrote: as vaccines continue to pose challenges and risks, we have made a decision at Tims Camps that all staff and camp participants must be vaccinated before they can participate in this year's summer camp.

Subsequently, the mother launched a petition.

The petition mentions that even though the Canadian government is no longer mandatory to complete vaccination, Tim Hortons still implements a policy of forcing participants to complete vaccination, and hopes that Tims will reverse this "excessive" policy.

As of 12:20 local time on May 11, 2022, the petition had summoned 20419 signatures, with the goal of summoning 30, 000.

A Mark Friesen, a self-proclaimed Canadian patriot and nationalist, posted a video message on Twitter.

Tim Hortons is very disappointed that it discriminates against children who have not been vaccinated against COVID-19. If Tims does not change this rule, it will no longer buy any of its products, while saying that vaccination is not necessary and is potentially harmful to human health.

Some netizens said that Tim Hortons's move to allow only vaccinated children to attend their summer camp was promoting the implementation of the quarantine policy, which did not stop the spread of COVID-19.

Some netizens also shared their action against Tims on Twitter, expressing their support for the action.

Other netizens protested by buying Tims coffee and then sprinkling it in front of TIms.

Some netizens noticed that it was strange that they boycotted Tims: they did not speak after American companies bought Tims; they kept quiet when they lost 40, 000 jobs; they lobbied against raising the minimum wage, but they had nothing to say; they remained silent after canceling paid leave. However, when Tims wanted to protect children with low immunity, they came forward to protest.

Some netizens also explained who the participants of the Tims fund summer camp were and were puzzled by these people who opposed Tims.

Tim Hortons and the Tim Hortons fund camp have yet to respond to online petitions and boycotts of Tim Hortons.
