The short answer

The Canadian burger board has the Heist; this page has the identity: poutine on the national menu since 2013 (with a Québec-only spicy buffalo chicken build), McFlurries made of candy bars that barely exist outside Canada, a strawberry pie, and a six-muffin bakery case that exists for one reason, and that reason is Tim Hortons.

Desserts

Item What it is
Stroopwafel McFlurry Stroopwafel McFlurry The Netherlands’ caramel-waffle flavor, visiting via the Heist.
SKOR McFlurry SKOR McFlurry Toffee from a candy bar that’s a Canadian specialty — a real national-exclusive McFlurry.
SMARTIES McFlurry SMARTIES McFlurry Nestlé Smarties, the chocolate kind — unavailable at any US McDonald’s.
Strawberry Cheesecake McFlurry Strawberry Cheesecake McFlurry The current feature flavor.
Triple Thick Milkshakes Triple Thick Milkshakes Canada kept the classic branding; chocolate, vanilla, strawberry.

The bakery case

Item What it is
Cookies Cookies Chewy chocolate chunk, toasted s’mores, rainbow sprinkle.
Muffins Muffins Six standing flavors: blueberry, chocolate chip, fruit & fibre, carrot, cranberry orange, chocolate brownie.

A six-flavor muffin wall makes no sense until you remember who McDonald’s Canada actually competes with at 7am. The McCafé coffee line (drip, espresso drinks, iced) rounds out the case, priced under the doughnut chain across the street.

FAQ

Does McDonald’s Canada really sell poutine?

Yes — nationally and permanently since 2013, with real cheese curds, and Québec currently gets an exclusive spicy buffalo chicken version on top.

What McFlurry flavors are Canada-only?

SKOR and SMARTIES, both built on candies with little or no US retail presence, plus whatever features rotate — currently strawberry cheesecake and the Heist’s stroopwafel.

Why does McDonald’s Canada sell so many muffins?

Tim Hortons. The bakery case — six muffins, three cookies, the McCafé coffee line — is aimed at Canada’s breakfast-coffee ritual, a competitive front US McDonald’s doesn’t fight on.

Is the Stroopwafel McFlurry permanent?

No — it’s a 2026 World Menu Heist import from the Netherlands and leaves when the run ends. The burger page tracks the full Heist lineup.
