Exactly. Restaurant Brands which owns Burger King, Tim Hortons and Popeyes is a US company. Tim Hortons is garbage anyway.

Is that why they're so smooth?

Well if there’s one place you don’t want hair, it’s in your coffee. Hang in there up there we’re rooting for you just south of the border.

According to Wikipedia they're headquartered in Toronto

In 2014, Burger King bought Tim Hortons in a merger that formed Restaurant Brands International; a primarily American company, though headquartered in Toronto alongside Tim Hortons (for tax purposes). Both then and now, RBIs primary assets/interests are in America.
