Original Note:
This is a bad comparison. The $1,400 checks are in addition to increased unemployment benefits, which the tweet does not mention. It’s not clear which countries he’s referring to, but Canada is providing $2000 Canadian dollars per month for only the unemployed ($1565 US). https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/covid-relief-funds-us-uk/
