They must have a pile of money backing them because they've been punching up for a while now. First Circle K and now 7-11?

Yeah Quebec's pension fund is backing them I think.

Is this going to make asian 7-11 as shitty as couche tard? Or is this going to make couche tard as awesome as 7-11 in asia???

I hope the latter.

The food in couche tard is just so uninspiring. Not downright terrible, but pretty overpriced for what they are.
