My mom told me how much money the mothers of my children were getting in addition to what I gave them, and it just didn't make sense. Apparently it was $20 per child around 1994. I had to look this up to see if it was true, and apparently it is:
This means that for the 2020–21 benefit year, the maximum benefit will be $6,765 per child under age 6 and $5,708 per child age 6 through 17. This additional tax-free support ensures that the benefit continues to play a vital role in supporting Canadian families by helping to pay for things their children need such as healthy food, clothes and activities they can do together at home.
https://www.newswire.ca/news-releases/canada-child-benefit-is-increasing-again-880876926.htmlThis is probably adjusted for millionaires [in Canada...I can honestly say I don't even know if millionaires are exempt from receiving this level of welfare]. The part here basically says that two parents can collectively earn $30,000 per year, and receive the maximum benefits:
For example, a family with two children under the age of 6 and an income of $30,000 will receive $13,530. That is $252 more than last year and $3,080 more than in 2015, before the introduction of the Canada Child Benefit.
^ In other words, two parents could each work only 20 hours per week at Wal-Mart for Ontario's minimum wage [$14 per hour - probably similar everywhere else in Canada], make $29,120 between the two of them, and get $62,365 added to that if they had ten kids, aged 1-10 [each separated in age by one year], and make $91,485 - and by the looks of this, it's tax free.
The Fraser Institute has an analysis of this madness here:

18. Can retailers refuse cash payment during the COVID-19 pandemic?
"Census data and Ontario’s Poverty Reduction Act recognize that groups like immigrants, women, single mothers, people with disabilities, Indigenous peoples and people from racialized communities are more likely to experience poverty. Bank of Canada research shows that people with lower levels of income are more likely to use cash."

This won't lead to complete economic collapse or a social uprising or anything:

Anyone else from a country like this? Kwon, Van Bilderass...does Sweden exceed this?
