I think you'd last longer than you think.
You get roughly 2k per month with EI per person if your spouse works.
Plus you can each earn another 250 before tax per week before EI starts clawing money back.
So that's about 5k after taxes per month at least until EI runs out.
I think you should be able to survive a year before losing everything based on the above assumptions or you should be doing more to save.
