What benefits are given for having more children by the canadian government?  

answers 0:I am living in ottawa. I want to know the benefits given by govt og canada to couples having many children. I want to know how many children one should have to avail benefits?answers 1:There is no "penal code" in Canada. There is the Criminal Code of Canada, but that covered criminal acts committed within Canada and certainly not tax laws, social programs, and benefits provided by the provinces.There aren't any benefits per-say.* There is the Canada Child Tax Benefit (CCTB) program. This provides a monthly payment which provides $113.91 a month for each child under 18 from the federal government, plus an extra $7.91 a month for the third child (or additional children). This is further increase in most provinces with a smaller provincial amount. However, if your family income is over $41,544 2% of your income is subtracted off this! bonus if you have one child, and 4% if you have two or more children. * You can also deduct certain expenses off your income related to child care, education, and some medical expenses.* Medical insurance is free for children under 19 in all provinces. Your provincial health care covers prenatal, birth, and any hospital stays after pregnancy.* Public primary and secondary education is free in Canada from K to 12. There are certainly other services such as child protection, parks and recreation programs, libraries, pools, etc. which might be free (or a reduced cost) for children and/or families.* Certain welfare programs and payments include additional amounts for parents with children, housing allowances, etc.However, considering the general cost of raising a child in Canada is likely well over $10,000 a year (diapers, food, clothing, added transportation costs, added livings/rent/home costs, dental, entertainment, sports equipment, etc., etc.) I wouldn't call these a "ben! efit". A couple without children is certainly going to be ahea! d economically. Most are pretty much token....answers 2:If you have 3 or more kids they give you $3,000 per year. You can check it out in the Canadian Penal Code 12.62-98-A.
