French Canadian keyboard sends special characters for some key-combinations #41

I noticed Ctrl+Alt+pdoesn't work (nor does Ctrl+Alt+o) when my keyboard is in "French (Canada)" mode. Using the debugger, I noticed that instead of the expected value, it comes out as (and §, respectively), with modifiers dropped. This must be a "feature" of Windows 10's French Canadian keyboard, which allows users to "type" less-commonly used characters without resorting to learning the Alt+(ASCII code) trick. It seems I could add a trap for those characters, since I never use them.
