Only for the Essex County or Windsor in Ontario, Tim Horton will find a way to exchange the RAV4 should the winner request another vehicle of the same value. The local union, once again disregarding the fact Toyota is investing billions of dollars in Ontario and will be building the RAV4 in that very same province, put pressure on Tim Horton to change the contest. GM, Ford and Toyota all bid for the Roll Up the Rim contest and Toyota was the most competitive bidder.
As a local editorialist points out, it is very ironic you can never see a sole in the local unionized Zellers that was Canadian owned until recently while the region is massively buying from Wal-Mart

Oh this pisses me off....
I remember hearing something similar about LEXUS in 1992......
The thing people loved about the car..................... RELIABILITY
The thing people hated about the car.................... Country of make... (Japanese)...
I was kind of young at that time and I could not understand the concept of hating a vehicle because of its country of make... Did not know the so very finely educated union workers at that time.
