They are making slow inroads here in Ontario. They built one in Mississauga
about 5 years ago. Their donuts are available in some grocery stores here but
they seem not to do well. There are really expensive, and around here there
aren't any stores that sell them that don't have a Tim Hortons within a few
hundred yards where you can get good freshly made donuts for a lot less.
