Panama voters approved a multi-billion dollar expansion of the Panama Canal, which will allow the largest freight ships to pass through and is projected to double capacity.
Opponents of the plan, which included environmentalists and Human Rights advocates, claimed the larger size would "allow Madonna to adopt entire African villages of boys."
Expansion advocates handed out tee-shirts which read, "Discover Yellow Fever All Over Again."
The Panamanian government plans to begin the project, but, as with the initial creation, to let the U.S. finish it, in order to 'boost its confidence because of that Iraq mess.'
