people who come to Canada and ask for political asylum or refugee status are immediately given social assistance, a living allowance (for rent), a health benifits card so they can see a doctor for free and a prescription card so any and all prescriptions are free. The social assistance they recieve is apparently a little more than $1,100 per month. their living allowance for rent is something like $800 per month.

Now then.... I worked every freakin day... 5 and 6 days a week at Tim Horton's from 1978 to 1995 when I lost my stomach and went on a permanent disability pension. My pension is $702 per month. And I have to pay for my prescriptions myself. Aside from $25 per week that I get for writing the nascar column for the newspaper, thats what I live on. You tell me if I like immigrants just showing up.
