This is going to work even more poorly than Target's Canadian adventure did. Canadian consumers are not as gullible and stupid as American companies hope, and now they're also very angry.

What Target launched up here was a hot mess that doesn’t resemble a US Target at all.

Also Canadians expected the same goods sold at US Targets at the same prices which was never going to happen. Most of those items aren’t sold in Canada period - Target couldn’t magically get Neutrogena to sell all the same items they do in the US just as they couldn’t get Chobani to magically be able to sell yogurt here. Target ended up being a shittily supplied version of Walmart with bare shelves and the same products you can get anywhere else in Canada at bad prices.

Dunkin will be no different but given how people here like their garbage Timmy « coffee » and eating at Chuck’s Roadhouse who knows.
