| The Proposed

Child
Benefit

> The proposed Child Benefit will, if passed by
Parliament, go out to over 3 million Canadian -
families starting in January 1993.

b> The proposed Child Benefit will replace today's +
patchwork of measures — Family Allowances, Child
Tax Credit and Dependent Child Credit — with one
monthly payment.

> The proposed Child Benefit will go to those
families with children who need it — those with low
and modest incomes. What's more, it is based on
family income, which is a fairer way of determining
the amount of assistance that children actually need.
The proposed Child Benefit will include an earned-
income supplement to increase support for low
income working families.

» The proposed Child Benefit will increase federal
support for children by §2.1 billion over 5 years, For
example, a family with one child, earning $20,000,
can receive as much as $1,733 per year — an
increase of 40%.

What's more, it would be tax- free — ~ you wouldn’ the
taxed on the proposed Child Benefit!

> Once fully in place, the proposed monthly Child
Benefit will respand to changing family
circumstances, such as the birth of a child.

> The proposed Child Benefit will automatically be
sent to you each month. If you file a tax return,
there’s na need to apply unless ‘you have a change
in family circumstances. At tax time, as well, you
would find your tax return easier to prepare.
