There's a few scattered through the northern US, but only a couple hundred.
I used to live in the town that had more Tim Horton's per capita than
anywhere else in the province (100,000 people, ~20 Timmy's, Sudbury, ON).

Of course we have Tim Horton's here in Hockeytown, USA. But I haven't seen them
elsewhere on this side of the border. (That would be the north side:-).

Hello, Frank ...
I'd not have recognized "the identifiable and cliched Canadianisms" as
I've seen the same attire and behavior in many parts of the US. Still,
it's always nice to see people dressed sloppily, smoking, drinking beer,
and freezing their asses off. You've put a ray of sunshine in to what is
an otherwise dreary day, as the weather in your pic is worse than that
which is here.
<LOL>
You're right, much in the photo would be de rigeur in the northern
climes of the US. What you likely don't recognize as uniquely
Canadian, as part of our cultural landscape, is the coffee cups; any
Canadian instantly recognizes them as Tim Horton's Coffee cups.
No matter than Tim's is now owned by the same holding company that
owns Wendy's burger joints - Americans buying out Canadian companies
is also part of what makes us who we are. <vbg>.
cheers,
