A visitor from the U.S. got more than they asked for at a Toronto hotel restaurant when they ordered a cheeseburger on Monday night that was served with a waiver on the side.

You are misinformed. Maybe there was a thing about coffee lids but it came out that mcdonalds had a policy to heat coffee that was to-go to unsafe levels so it would be warm by the time it got home. Like hot enough to cause third-degree burns. The lady who had her labia's fused wasn't the only person suing McDonalds for this.

From the wiki

Liebeck's attorneys argued that, at 180–190 °F (82–88 °C), McDonald's coffee was defective, and more likely to cause serious injury than coffee served at any other establishment.
