Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics (Unicode block)

See also: Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics Extended (Unicode block) and Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics Extended-A

Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics is a Unicode block containing syllabic characters for writing Inuktitut, Carrier, Cree (along with several of its dialect-specific characters), Ojibwe, Blackfoot and Canadian Athabascan languages. Additions for some Cree dialects, Ojibwe, and Dene can be found at the Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics Extended block.
