I'm just curious.

If you met this guy on the street, would you know who he is?

Please answer.

I can only assume this is Tim Hortons

Posts like this are an indication we need a casual conversation community on lemmy.ca. This isn't a c/Canada post imo

I mean it takes literally a minute to make one if it's something that bothers you

[–] [email protected] 6 points 23 hours ago

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 [email protected] 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.

Owner of Tim Hortons, Heinz, Anheuser-Busch InBev, and Burger King. Damn, he must work really hard managing all of those giant corporations!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 21 hours ago

yes, he is recognizable for a lot of people here in Brasil. Unfortunately, not everyone despises him as we should

[–] [email protected] 4 points 23 hours ago

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.

I wouldn't recognize him, although I've griped about Tims wrapping itself in the flag after the sale.
