leave it to the CBC to put out this video that we all know is lies. We can go directly to the government websites and see for ourselves how much these illegals get. We also know that they are being put up into hotels at taxpayers expense while our own Canadian citizens get kicked out onto the street so they can be treated like princes and princesses on Canadian taxpayers dime. Suck a crock that you promote these lies to try to convince us taxpayers aren't on the hook for all this stuff.
