Many people enjoyed a free breakfast on Saturday at Windsor, Ont.‘s restaurant, Toast, as an unknown American couple paid for everyone’s bill. The gesture acted as an apology for the rift between Canada and the U.S.

Windsorite Susan Taylor was at Toast, ready to pay for her breakfast when she was told the bill had been covered.

“The waitress made an announcement in the restaurant that this lovely couple in the corner is paying for everyone who is in the restaurant at the time for breakfast,” Taylor told AM800’s Mornings with Mike and Meg.

“She (the donor) said that she was American, and she just wanted to apologize,” said Taylor.

“She said she knows that their president has caused a rift in what was happening between our countries, and she wanted us to know that not all Americans are bad people.”

    I’m so sick of the term “Virtue signalling”. You have no idea what this woman’s life is like, she might genuinely do this stuff everyday just to make people’s lives better. You don’t know!

    If Elon or trump did something like this then yea sure rag them because we know it isn’t genuine based on the things we know about him. But you don’t know a single thing about this woman.
