Just checking here - I've got a friend that is looking for two new albums for the Team Canada set from Tim Hortons. Most of the stores that I've encountered on the north side and downtown in Calgary did not get any. Anyone local here or even elsewhere have access? He's trying to get them for his and his son's set
 
They are scarce here in Kitchener/Waterloo as well. I got one at the second store I frequent on Day 2. But a buddy went to 5 different locations and couldn't find any -- and that is during the first 2 weeks.

Last week I went to a 3rd location and the manager told me they have no intention of ordering them. Not sure if they are generally short-printed or if many Franchisees have hockey card fatigue going into a second promotion. And considering many franchisees own multiple stores in a region, it may make them more regionally scarce?
 
I noticed this too on release day. The first location I went to showed me the binder from the regular 21-22 release. I asked the manager if they had the Team Canada binder (the one pictured in ALL of their advertising lol). The manager then told me that they did not order any. I checked a few other locations all around the city and the same thing. Luckily I did manage find a few for myself and a few friends.

My thoughts are that the vast majority of Tim Horton's did not order any because this was the second hockey card release and there was not as much done in terms of promotion like the regular annual release and some locations had left over binders or other binders that did not sell very well.

If I do come across any locations that still have them I will send you a quick PM, however I am located in BC.
