You are forgetting the approximately $600 per child that the family receives, times four children is $2,400 tax free. Then a family of 6 receives FAR in excess of $710 per month, more like $2,000 per month. Add it up and the family receives approximately $4,400 per month, tax free, for being illegal aliens in Canada.  And they can't find "affordable" housing? My heart bleeds. I don't bring home nearly that much money per month after taxes and I work about 50 hours a week.
