Does the Government help the newcomers financially until they find a job?

So it's cheaper to support a family when working? What's the logic?
I think what he was saying is, if you don't work and attempt to support a family your poverty level will be high and you will all unfortunately suffer. But with a job, the poverty goes away and your suffering eases greatly. Thus it's not the fact that its cheaper to support a family when you have a job; it is the fact that money does, in this case, equal happiness. Thus a job is worth it.

I thought he said the employer (like those in some middle eastern companies) paid for things like rental house, kid's education, meals, transportation, health and dental benefits, entertainment, etc which the employee does not need to pay anything out of his pockets!

No I am saying if you are worried about your savings come to Canada on your own without your family and look for a job. Once you have a job and find a place to live send for your family. If you are concerned about spending all your savings it is much less expensive to come to Canada as a single person and not as a family because living frugally is much easier as a single person.
