If you order an iced tea in Canada you are getting Nestea/Brisk like 95% of the time. Both are sweet teas, but are marketed and labelled as "Iced Tea", not "Sweet Tea" - ask our American beverage overlords Coke/Pepsi why

If you are in a cafe, or some other place where the expectation is that they brew their own, then yes, it's generally unsweetened - but it's also usually explicitly labelled as such on the menu so you know whether you are getting brewed tea vs a glass of corn syrup

Brisk makes me so sad. I'll just do a soda instead at that point. I'll do unsweetened iced tea or sweet tea, but not that trash.

Tastes like it was designed by someone who had never had tea in their lives.

It has, like, a chemically burning aftertaste too. Or I'm allergic to something in it, I dunno.
