Is this another one of those Basic Income proposals that are means tested? Not really UBI if that is the case.

After reading this document, I feel that it is still ambiguous. However 88 billion (the cost estimate in the OP article) divided by the population of canada is 2200, which I think wouldn't be considered a livable annual income, so I think what they're talking about must have some kind of means testing.
