Ferries and gas stations[edit]

I can't think of a way to integrate this into the article (maybe later) but White Spot also has locations on BC Ferries and in many Chevron gas stations. Steven Fisher (talk) 04:53, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am not sure how to integrate this either, but think it should be done. Perhaps mention of the Pacific National Exhibition location, airport locations (YVR, YYJ, YLW) and food trucks would also be helpful.^[1]--Darryl Kerrigan (talk) 02:52, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Gee v.White Spot[edit]

White Spot plays a rather important role in this important casein Canadian common law, it's probably deserving of mention here.68.149.233.141 07:58, 5 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I added it but hope someone can get a better source for verification?? It's been cited by the Supreme Court, listed in law catalogues and profiled in You Be The Judge but I had to rely on a law student for detail. Canuckle (talk) 23:59, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I added a link to this decision. I am not sure if there is a better way to deal with this subject matter in the acticle. Perhaps, it shouldn't be there at all. @Canuckle: if you are still around, feel free to offer your two cents.--Darryl Kerrigan (talk) 00:02, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

International Locations, Hong Kong clean-up[edit]

If anyone has time to clean this section up, and perhaps add some understanding of Cantonese that would be helpful. There seems to be some Chinese language sources out there about this, which are beyond me.--Darryl Kerrigan (talk) 00:07, 16 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Incident with one franchise manager[edit]

I have removed this content about the actions of one manager this year. Including it seems undue weight. This is one incident involving one franchise manager affecting a national/international chain with over 100 locations, and which has been in operation for nearly 100 years. Focus on this one incident seems undue and rather newsy.--Darryl Kerrigan (talk) 22:48, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
