It can cover the necessities.
A blanket payment is meant for accessibility and speed.
The more regulations and processing there is, the longer it takes to get to people's hands.
The sacrifice is, some people are not going to get as much as they would have with a more regulated system, and some may get more.

And in a household of two Canadians and no working children it’s 4K a month. They will have the money in 3 days of application, which from what I’ve heard is taking people minutes.
That can also cover the necessities. I fail to see how the US system is better than ours.
The difference with ours is that it will remain accessible for a longer period of time so there is a safety net for what we hope is the entire duration of the extreme points of this situation.
