Nations React to Reported $1 Billion Fee for Trump’s Peace Board

  President Trump said the Peace Board 'will embark on a new approach to resolving global conflict'. Reports surrounding President Donald Trump’s proposed Board of Peace have ignited global debate after claims surfaced that countries may be asked to contribute $1 billion to secure or maintain permanent membership. The board, envisioned as a body overseeing governance and reconstruction efforts in Gaza, would reportedly be chaired by Trump himself, who would hold authority over which nations are admitted. A draft charter circulating among diplomats outlines three‑year membership terms, renewable only with the chairman’s approval. It also suggests that nations contributing $1 billion within the first year could bypass term limits and secure a permanent seat.

Tim Hortons Investigates Ontario Man’s ‘Defected’ Coffee Cups

 

Tim Hortons, the iconic Canadian coffee chain, is currently investigating an unusual issue with its coffee cups. Rob Kitchen, an Ontario man, experienced an unexpected mishap when he was handed a cup that entirely spilled from the bottom.

Kitchen recounted the incident to CTV News Toronto: “Luckily I didn’t have a black coffee, but if somebody has a black coffee, you know how hot that can be, right? Especially if the bottom falls off when you’re driving.” His friend had purchased two large coffees from a Tim Hortons in Dunnville, Ontario, and then drove approximately 15 minutes to Kitchen’s home. When Kitchen set the cup down on his toolbox, the entire coffee spilled out from the bottom, leaving him with an empty cup.

Images of the two cups reveal that the bottom had “split” from the rest of the cup, which appeared heavily deteriorated. Kitchen speculated that perhaps the cardboard lining of the cup had become soggy due to some defect. His wife promptly contacted the Tim Hortons location to report the incident.

A spokesperson from Tim Hortons confirmed that they would be investigating the issue with their supplier. They expressed regret for the unacceptable experience and assured Kitchen that they would make it right. While Kitchen received a free coffee as compensation, the investigation aims to prevent similar incidents in the future.

As Canadians continue to rely on their beloved Tim Hortons for their daily caffeine fix, this incident serves as a reminder that even the most familiar routines can sometimes take an unexpected turn.
