Answer 1

A hundred bucks for a child under six.

Answer 2

There's the Canada Child Tax Benefit...http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/benefits/cctb/

How much you're eligible for depends on the household annual income and the number of children in the family.  The more you make in income, the lower the child allowance will be.

There's also the Universal Child Care Benefit, which provides $100 per month per child under the age of six.  http://www.servicecanada.gc.ca/en/goc/un...
