I was behind a NAT, for what it's worth. Here's the location if you're collecting Tim Hortons metadata.

No, it's probably just another of those differences between Canadian and American stores. Like how beverage size names are all offset by one in the US; a traditional medium is an American small, a traditional large is an American medium, etc. That surprised me when I was visiting a Tim Hortons in Massachusetts. Apparently wifi is another one of those things, but it's odd that if they only offer it in the US, they use a Canadian supplier.

Maybe American Tim Hortons needs to take over Canadian Tim Hortons.

... just as soon as we enjoy some more delicious coffee and high-speed Internet, paid for by a credit or debit card.

wait what was the original topic again

Our cups: Image

Well, there are 600 US stores, and 3000 Canadian stores (1:10000 people!), so it's not going quite that way yet :P I suspect the prices match the different sizes, though, it's just a naming thing. Except that the US has no equivalent to our "small" size, and we have no equivalent to the US "extra large" size. 8/10/14/20 oz. versus 10/14/20/24 oz.

Original topic? What original topic? This thread seems to be about coffee and trains.

Some Canadian locations are currently testing US-equivalent cup sizes, including the even larger "extra large".

The train will get back on track as soon as one of OP's clients gets a taste of Tim Horton's coffee. Brace for all those confused e-mails telling the OP he can't log in to his site so it must have been hax0red, etc.

Just require 2048-bit public keys on all accounts. Problem solved.
