No, the problem with Hooters in Canada, and why Canadians don't go there is this..
In Canada Hooters is, Way too Damn EXPENSIVE COMPARED TO CANADIAN ALTERNATIVES...
Hooters in Canada, is a place for American tourists to go to, just like Denny's, I.H.O.P., Applebee's and T.G.I.McScrathy's . These places in the U.S. Aren't ridiculously overpriced.
Unfortunately When you see any of these franchises in Canada. They charge Incredibly ridiculous prices..
Seriously 80$ for 2 people to eat breakfast at Denny's..... Totally, ridiculous.....
Well, if a looney was worth more than 22 cents US... Seriously, I don't do Hooters down here. They are way overpriced, the waitress 'costumes' don't make up for it. Well, there was one funny from that: a co worker (who wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer) insisted we eat lunch at Hooter's and asked the waitress why her legs were so shiny. The look on her face...

Dont keep us waiting! Why were her legs so shiny?

Just a note on the original topic, if we can step back for a moment. I ordered a set of BFG Rivals from Tire Rack yesterday, which is Tuesday. They are scheduled for delivery on Friday by end of business. The invoice includes tires, federal sales tax, provincial sales tax, brokerage, and the Saskatchewan Scrap Tire levy of $4.00 per tire. They will be sitting on my back deck when I get home on Friday.
This is a company that has their ducks seriously in a row, and all their E36 M3 is together as it is possible to be, and there is no good reason why other people can't sell me what I want just as easily.
Again.... CORPORATE says "No or we revoke your franchise". We do what they say. No need to take it out on the man in the trench.

And let's keep this polite. I don't want to hear anyone calling them frostb*cks
Keith, Leslie and Transmaro are like Canada's Bond, Moneypenny and Q.
Cool, I get to be Bond?
You guys do know that the loonie is basically worth the same as the US dollar now, right? No more of that 66 cent crap. If only this had been the case when I moved to the US...

I know some of the girls that work at a local Hooters. I get hooked up with some pretty awesome coupons for free stuff a lot. They're pretty fun out of work, too. I don't mind their company, not one bit.

Yep. About 3 cents less than a dollar at the current (8/15) exchange rate. Occasionally the Canadian dollar has been worth more.
I bought a set of wheels I didn't really need a few years ago, just so I could see $400 US converted to $390 CDN on my Visa statement.

I hereby invite the USA to become the eleventh province.
You'll be below Ontario but above Quebec on the likeability scale.
No need to thank me.
I still vote we trade you California for Canada.........the catch is, you must keep all the current californians

But they could all get out of the cold and hot and go for a reasonably temperate climate. Seriously, all we ask is you keep the Californians.....
In reply to yamaha:
Don't need California. I'm in the California of Canada. Complete with the crazies.
Ah yes, California. Known down here as The Granola State because it's chock full of nuts, fruits and flakes. Don't blame y'all for not wanting it.

I invite Canada to become states 51-60, you wont be blown to bits if you cooperate and give us good maple syrup pricing.
Then we can combine forces and take back Colorado and California, they're more less trying to leave the union now.
