I have. Here in Canada I'm pretty sure A&W is still growing and doing well. It's very different from the US version from what I've heard. It's one of the better fast food chains IMO, especially of the larger ones. Definitely have the best onion rings.

Canadian a&w is a totally different beast from the American franchise, related in name only, and my favorite fast food by a long way.

A&W Canada is a different company entirely https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A%26W_(Canada)

Not the person you're replying to, just a similarly perplexed Canadian. They're the only fast food joint I go to here in Canada when I'm not traveling (and, really, other than traveling that's maybe 5 to 10 times a year) but their quality here is quite high for the category and price.

I've found that Toronto has a bigger appetite (pun not intended) for higher quality "fast food". Quiznos and craft burger joints also come to mind.
