Tim Horton's is growing like a weed in the US...but I don't know if I'd consider it Canadian. It's as Canadian as Sears, I guess. TH started in Canada, founded by a Canadian (hockey player even!), but then sold to Wendy's International. Sears is the opposite, it came in the 50s, but it's been around so long, it might as well be Canadian. I say grant it honorary citizenship.

Bata closing its namesake stores is a surprise too, but it'll keep its Athlete's World stores open in Canada, and will reenter the Canadian market someday.
