Tim Hortons Refuses Accessible Parking for Veterans

Shame on Tim Hortons for Boycotting Our Canadian Human Rights, the Law and Our Veterans.
How Will You Remember Our Hero`s and What Will You Do to combat Human Rights Abuses in Canada by Tim Hortons?
Ask a soldier what he would be willing to fight for and probably a cup of Timmies would rank top ten on a dark cold night in Afghanistan. It is too bad that same soldier cannot be honoured or even respected back home by Tim Hortons; our governments laws and their human rights agreements that required Tim Hortons to provide accessibility and lawful parking for our veteerans, parents and people with disabilities over eighteen years ago.
Prime Minister Harper, Premier McGuinty and Legal Counsel from Tim Hortons all are required to know Canadian law and are governed by it.

In the US we have handicap parking for anyone with disabilities. Is this the same thing in Canada? Or do they actually have separate parking for disabled veterans?

[Beyondability1]

Accessible parking spaces and signs are for all persons with disabilities including veterans.

So watch out for Tim Hortons in the US and report them to the Department of Justice.

It is a shame Tim Hortons has not respected our human rights and accessibility laws especially after making agreements and being given the information and solutions to resolve these issues many years ago when the Ontario Human Rights Commisiion said so.

McDonalds is doing the same thing as well.

[Beyondability1]

Regulation 581 of the Highway Traffice Act and the Ontario Human Rights Code required the signage and enforcement of the accessible parking that is routinely abuse by ignorant people and the company and franchise owners that allow it to continue.

[Beyondability1]

Tim Hortons has been given the information and refused to meet or remedy the issues.

Emails, direct contact and offers to meet with the Premier of Ontario's designate and the President of TDL Group-Don Schroeder have not been responded to.

Another human rights complaint of systemic discrimination is unfortunately necessary.

You obviously do get the point. Treating veterans and wounded warriors with contempt while using them as corporate and political public relations is very wrong. I am just the citizen that has blown the whistle on the disgusting hypocrites. Remember I am an "army brat whose veteran father just passed away. I will honour him and our wound warriors who also stand for something!

Timmies in the Maritimes have their designated Handicapped spots. Curious why the ones in Ontario are that way. Are all the ones in Ontario not designated or does it depend on the franchise owner??

[TheBigBentley911]

Wow that's crazy. You can't go anywhere in the US where there isn't at least 4 handicap spots. Ive never heard of Tim Hortons before but I know McDonald's, and that's just downright lousy that they are doing the same thing.

I am not a veteran but have 2 sons that are now serving and a husband who is retired. You have shown Tims real side with this video.I am in a wheelchair and know how frustrating is getting into a Tims is. I have also been denied service because I have a certified special skills dog with me at all times I hope that alot of people watch this and see how Tim Hortons is getting away with this and who they must be paying off. Able bodied people probably didnt notice this before now ! Thanks !
