Merged company will headquarter in Canada to avoid high US corporate taxes.
At the same time, our customers, employees, franchisees and fellow Canadians can all rest assured that Tim Hortons will still be Tim Hortons following this transaction, including our core values, employee and franchisee relationships, community support and fresh coffee.
Seems new company wants to keep TH perhaps even transform some BK locations to TH. Just my speculation, but they would be silly to do it the other way.
