This is a proposal to encode additional Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics in the international character encoding standard Unicode. This set of characters was published in Unicode Standard version 5.2 in October 2009. The characters were added to support Algonquian communities (Cree, Moose Cree, and Ojibway) and Dene communities (Hare Dene, Beaver Dene, Chipewyan, and Carrier).
