The Canadian government has allocated $20 million in taxpayer funds to a project aimed at improving beach etiquette in northern Ghana. This initiative includes spending $850,000 on signs to discourage public defecation on beaches. The expenditure has sparked criticism, with some arguing that the funds could be better used domestically, such as in Grand Bend, Ontario, to educate Indian migrants on similar issues. Some reports suggest the amount spent was $19 million.
