Tim Hortons says it will hire 10,000 locals in Canada amid boycott call, 'Singh Hortons' nickname

After years of depending largely of the Temporary Foreign Worker program for which Tim Hortons was nicknamed as 'Singh Hortons', the restaurant chain announced on Monday that they decided to scale back its foreign hiring and commit to hiring 10,000 local workers as the chain is now expaning across the country. “We have not lobbied the government since last year and we won’t be lobbying them on TFWs any time soon given our commitment to hire locally everywhere possible,” said Duncan Fulton, chief corporate officer of Restaurant Brands, the parent company of Tim Hortons.
