Original Note:
The claim that refugees in Canada receive $224/day is misleading. This refers to costs paid to service providers for temporary accommodations and services, not direct payments to refugees. Only a small fraction are housed in IRCC accommodations, and the cost is per room. https://www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/fact_checking/tiktok-post-misleads-viewers-on-cost-of-refugee-claimants/article_8ec0263a-0e39-5cb0-8ba7-713414678e5f.html
