Abstract

Introduction - This research paper will present an evaluation of the 1997 Federal national child benefit act. The NCB was introduced as a way to aid poor working families which include children override income disparities which exist between them and families in higher economic brackets. Research determining the economic disparities that exist within and between nations has shown that the working poor (and those on welfare) need to spend an equal amount of their income on their children, but simply do not have the income to spend that wealthier citizens have.(Meyers and Gornick, 2003). This leads to vertical income disparities by region, across nations, and between different societies with different concepts of social welfare policies. (Meyers and Gornick, 2003) In Canada families face what is called a 'welfare wall.' This is the supposed wall of challenge which prevents families on welfare from seeking work, as their actual disposable net income falls to levels that might be equal to, or below, what they were receiving when on welfare.
