For my Canadian friends

Have say that, in days gone by, Tims made good donuts - of course that was in the days when donuts were all made locally in the back of every store. Since they've stopped that an just ship in frozen donuts from a central factory that's no longer the case.

As far as I can see, JK Rowling is entitled to her own opinion.
She does not know the science, and can't extrapolate from her own experiences.

But she's using her money to lobby against equality. Fact is, she's actually threatened to bankrupt Amnesty International for opposing her.

True, but immaterial.
Her own opinion is not the issue. Opinion is state of mind. It's not a matter of thought. It's a matter of conduct.
Rowling seems to be committed to civil rights discrimination. That's a crime under the Constitution, including the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment.
 
But in Canada it's not known as "Canadian Bacon". That name is simply an American marketing ploy. And the stuff they sell in the US under that name is a poor imitation of the real thing.

Since you probably can't find it where you live you can make your own. It's not difficult - I bought my Prague Powder (sometimes called "pink salt" on Amazon - a comment, it's not salt so you cannot substitute the "pink salt" you find in gourmet stores and you can't put it on food).

You'll find a number of other recipes on line - the only difference being the spices that go in the marinade.

Geoffrey took a cab from Zurich Airport to midtown Zurich. One of the first retail shops he found sold cheese.
Geoffrey had eaten swiss cheese in Peoria, and decided to try what Switzerland had to offer,
and ordered sliced swiss cheese.

The clerk shrugged:
"It's all Swiss. What kind would you like?"
Geoffrey ate at McDonald's.
 
First time I went to Switzerland (Zurich to be exact) I was under strict orders from my wife to bring back some real Swiss chocolate. I was there for a little over a week and everybody was asking me what I was going to do during my free time on the weekend - when I said that I was going to do some sightseeing but did want to buy some good chocolate the immediate response was "You've go to go to Sprungli" - after the fifth time I was told this I got the idea - I should probably go to Sprungli. Definitely did and walked out CHF 300 poorer (and it all fit in my briefcase for the flight home). On subsequent trips I discovered that they also had a store in the Zurich airport so I had no excuses for not stocking up before I came home.
