In a recent high-profile article on September 13, 2018, titled, “Tim Hortons parent settles with franchisee after locking him out of his restaurants,” the Globe and Mail cited Ben Hanuka’s opinion about Tim Horton’s ouster of the head of its independent franchisees’ association.

The article discussed, among other things, the impact that the loss of the association’s leader could have on the association’s activities.  It cited Mr. Hanuka’s opinion, that “it boils down to how engaged the other franchisee members of the association are with the issues that they want to pursue,” and that “the effectiveness of the [association] would also depend on how legitimate or legally grounded the issues are”.
