Tim Hortons and the missing apostrophe

The Bolla Market which recently opened on eastbound Merrick Road in Seaford, just before the Hempstead/Oyster Bay town line, has a staffed counter for Tim Hortons coffee, donuts, and breakfast sandwiches. I noticed the missing apostrophe. The explanation is HERE.

Shortly after Expo '67, Quebec nationalists insisted on French-only signs. The apostrophe in Tim Horton's brand name was English, so it was dropped.
