If you live in Canada, you know the place to go to for coffee and donuts is Tim Hortons. Heck, eating there is a rite of passage for all Canadians. Another company that is located in Canada is BlackBerry. It seems that Tim Hortons needed a cellphone to use in an ad that was produced to show off the restaurant chain's new mobile app. Doing the neighborly thing, Tim Horton decided to go with the new all-touch BlackBerry Z10.

Timmy Ho's, as the chain is affectionately called in the country, has over 3,000 locations in Canada where it is even larger than McDonald's. The BlackBerry story, we all know by now. New management, new OS, new handsets. With the BlackBerry Z10 already launched in major locations, by the end of this month the QWERTY equipped BlackBerry Q10 will be launched. Perhaps that will lead to a new commercial for Tim Hortons. Anyone getting hungry?
