He is one of the richest man in the world. He owns one of the largest corporation in Canada. Do you know who this guy is?

I'm just curious.

If you met this guy on the street, would you know who he is?

Please answer.

Posts like this are an indication we need a casual conversation community on lemmy.ca. This isn't a c/Canada post imo
- I mean it takes literally a minute to make one if it's something that bothers you
  
  You are correct. I'm not really much of a casual conversation person myself, so I don't think I'm the best person to moderate it. I moderate other communities and actively contribute to Lemmy. Someone else might see my comment and think, "hey I'd like to do that"
- I'd posted a couple times in !chatter@lemmy.ca but it hadn't caught on. Would be good to start a new community for this.
Very unlikely I’d meet him on the street these days unless I was in Switzerland.
He looks a lot older than the last picture I saw of him.
I can only assume this is Tim Hortons
No, I wouldn't have recognized him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jorge/_Paulo/_Lemann
- Owner of Tim Hortons, Heinz, Anheuser-Busch InBev, and Burger King. Damn, he must work really hard managing all of those giant corporations!
I do, because I’m from Brazil and lots of my friends worked for Ambev, so they revere this man as a living god just like the average Amazon manager does for Jeff Bezos.
yes, he is recognizable for a lot of people here in Brasil. Unfortunately, not everyone despises him as we should
I wouldn't recognize him, although I've griped about Tims wrapping itself in the flag after the sale.
