This study examines the mechanisms of income supports and housing benefits. It looks at practices from Canada and six other OECD countries, and compares benefits based on market type, location and costs. Findings show that delivery varies considerably across Canada and across countries, with a potential impact on adequacy and fairness. Various new trends for both needs assessment and delivery mechanisms show promise.
