How much support new parents get seems to vary by city (and maybe province?).

I've also had two children born in Canada in the past few years, but in different cities (and provinces). Neither gave us a baby box, but the first provided a free and unprompted hearing test right in the recovery room, while the other required us to make a seperate appointment in the weeks following the birth for that same service.
