Canada Child Benefit 2026 — How to Maximize What You Receive

  Published: April 2026 | Reading time: 10 min | Category: Saving Money, Personal Finance, Budgeting The Canada Child Benefit is one of the most valuable government programs available to Canadian families — and a surprising number of parents are receiving less than they're entitled to, simply because they don't understand how the benefit is calculated or what they can do to increase it. In 2026, eligible Canadian families can receive up to $7,786.97 per year for each child under age 6, and up to $6,570.00 per year for each child aged 6 to 17. For a family with two young children, that's potentially over $15,000 per year in completely tax-free cash — money that never shows up on your tax return and doesn't reduce any other benefit.

Israeli Airstrike Eliminates Senior Hezbollah Commander in Southern Lebanon

 

In a significant escalation of hostilities, an Israeli airstrike has killed a high-ranking commander in Hezbollah’s elite Radwan forces, according to security sources. The commander, identified as Habib Maatouk, was targeted in southern Lebanon on Thursday.

Maatouk had recently assumed his position following the death of his predecessor, Ali Ahmed Hassin, who was also killed in an Israeli strike earlier this year. The latest attack is part of ongoing tit-for-tat violence between Israel and Hezbollah, which has intensified since October 2023 when Hezbollah declared a “support front” with Palestinians following a major Hamas attack on southern Israel.

The airstrike hit the border villages of Safad El Batikh and Jmaijmeh, resulting in multiple casualties. Eighteen wounded individuals were taken to Tebnin government hospital, with two reported in critical condition. The conflict has led to significant destruction in Lebanese border towns, reminiscent of the 2006 Israel-Lebanon war.

This incident underscores the fragile and volatile nature of the region, with both sides continuing to engage in aggressive military actions. The international community remains concerned about the potential for further escalation and the humanitarian impact on civilians caught in the crossfire.
