I've always wondered whether there could be a sort of "revolution" amongst Tim Horton's franchise owners.  From what I've been reading it seems like it's a race to the bottom, where RBI is cutting corners and costs at every opportunity at the expense of quality and long term prospects.  Could a large chunk of franchise owners just shut down one day, and then organize and re-open a week later as a new Canadian coffee chain?  Anyone have any insight on something like this?
