I didn't mean to remove multilingual keymap but just add some simplified
variants.
The thing is that since XFree 4.3.0 a keyboard confuguration allows to combine
any national layouts (up to four) into one keymap.  But Canadian layout now
can be used alone only because of its complexity.
And such simplified variants are purposed namele for such combining with
other maps.

Of course the existent keymap will be kept too.

You mean "angle quotation marks" and "oe ligature", right?
The angle quotations present on all Microsoft Canadian layouts but oe in the
multilingual one only.

BTW I don't see "oe ligature" there but ae only.
