1. That mug is probably NOT made in North America, thus it's manufacturer would probably have wanted to make one product for both markets.
2. That crown and the red background is recognizable as being the image of a phrase that seems to have caught the imagination, of late:

If doing a Google search is enough "evidence" it would seem that the phrase has been usurped worldwide!
3. The founder of Tim Hortons was a Canadian hockey great, so I'm betting that out of respect for him and his roots, that phrase is on all cups, eh?

p.s. Oh, ye of little faith! !!
