I've recently added "ca_enhanced" as French (Canada), but from the french
group (0000??0c) instead of the english group (0000??09). A few months
ago I also added "ca" but removed it again since it did not match the actual
layout.
Is there a difference between those two? Which is more correct? ca, ca_enhanced
or fr_CA. Judging from a short test ca_enhanced matches the layout from the
website best (the key left to 1 produces / instead of # with "ca").
you can set the layouts with setxkbmap ca_enhanced.
