Quotes by David Fennario (?)

“but every year a wreath is still laid at the memorial statue repeating the same old lies they told us a hundred years ago about bringing peace and prosperity to places like Afghanistan? … Does anyone out there really believe a bunch of guys used to sit around the Tim Hortons in Kandahar saying, “Thank you, thank you, thank you, Canada. Can we have two double-doubles to go with democracy?” …”
― David Fennario, Motherhouse
