So as a non Canadian that frequents Ontario and BC, are there any Canadian-owned coffee places I can look for?
I liked Timmy’s because they even have one in Blue Mountain village and a lot of the middle of nowhere roads I have to drive to get there
Second Cup
They're based in Mississauga but have changed hands a lot in their history.
I think Balzac's is Canadian too. There's are kids of independent coffee shops that are good.
They are Canadian, but I really hate their coffee.
There aren't many left in Montreal because independent coffee houses / shops are competing hard with them.
As a VERY casual coffee drinker, will I notice?
Eh, maybe not. I also think Tims' coffee is undrinkable, so YMMV.

BC has Waves, Serious Coffee, Island Grind, Blenz, JJ Bean, and more but thats what I can recall off the top of my head.
Ottawa has Bridgehead
Waves and Blenz are a crapshoot for decent coffee, but they have good blended drinks. Turks, JJ Bean, Kafka's and Palette, and Matchstick(though I've heard some bad gossip about an owner) are all great for coffee and espresso.
I don't even try to navigate the mess of corporate ownership. There's always a little shop ran by a guy with an espresso machine.
It won't be drive thru but the coffee will taste good
Tim Horton’s is still Canadian. Burger King did not buy them. The two share an owner who is headquartered in Canada.
