They affect your Child Tax Benefit, and Ralph bucks, and I believe one of the CPC planks was to give more money to parents on a per child basis.
You do get to claim child care expenses (well, the LOWER income spouse does), but you wouldn't have those without the kid, so if you're having kids for tax benefits then financially your motives are suspect.
