Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Affordable housing is a means-tested, in-kind benefit as it provides subsidized housing benefits to low-income individuals or families based on their income and other eligibility criteria. Employment Insurance (EI), Old Age Security (OAS), and Canada Child Benefit (CCB) are also welfare programs in Canada but they are not means-tested in-kind benefits. EI provides temporary financial assistance to individuals who have lost their jobs, while OAS is a non-means tested pension program for seniors, and CCB is a tax-free monthly payment to eligible families with children under the age of 18.
