Whats a Canadian Christmas without the Canadian Coffee?

Tim Hortons 2010 Christmas Coffee Cup (from Google Images)

I woke up this mornimg on a (not so regular) warm December morning only wanting a Tim Hortons coffee. It was rather enjoyable...however to my dismay i had no christmas festiveness on my cup. 

According to these allegations going around, it is said to belive many people were arguing that the festivities on the cups were leaning towards the christmas religion rather than just the winter scenes.  A few of the arguments wanted to have it removed, while others said that they want their religion to be shown on the sups as well.  Since Tim Hortons could not add every single holiday religion, head office said they would stop going the cups for 2011/2012 winter season

I know it may seem irrelevant to some people, but the christmas festivities that appear on this "Timmy's" cup is something I look forward too every December.

Personally, Christmas isn't celebrated as well as it should be in my household.  Tree decorating doesn't happen until the second or third week of december, and it gets taken down January 2.  Christmas lights haven't been on my house for the second year in a row.  My family says it's because of the new eves put onto our house, and my mom doesn't want to get them scratch.  Pft.

I seem to not be the only one upset about this matter.  Tara from B101, Barrie's Hit Music station, expresses for love of the "missing coffee cups"

On her blog she wrote  "I know it may not be a big deal to some...but the Christmas Cups at Tim Horton's have become an almost official start to the holiday season...a cup of hot coffee inside a cutesy idyllic winter scene...made my morning over the holidays...and I swear...the coffee tastes better in those cups then the regular cups...now...it looks like we have to make do with their lousy old brown "Buy and over-priced Latte" cups..."

And people agreed with her, commenting that they look forward to the cups every year as well, saying that it "makes the reason bright."

E-mails have been sent to head office and PR people of this franchise to hear the truth and put a solid source to this allegations .
