Just a little reminder.

Pisses me off to no end that they use the Canadian identity for marketing when they sold out decades ago.

Also their coffee and food has been shit for a long time too, coincidence? I think not.

The term is 'enshittification' and it's practically the default business strategy for extracting cash from brand value.

Buy/make a good company by offering a quality service and then spend the next decade cutting costs until the product is terrible.

Most people won't notice the incremental changes. It's often likened to boiling a frog.
