Inuit are also in Quebec, check Category: Inuit communities in Quebec

Labrador has Inuit as well, but this is talking about Northern Canada which normally excludes both Quebec and Labrador.

– Based on the requested move at Talk:Aboriginal peoples in Canada#Requested move 2 June 2017 I am proposing that we be consistent and move all of these pages. Indigenous does seem to be the preferred term (University of Manitoba asks: What should I say?, Canadian Indigenous Nurses Association). Currently we have some articles like this at Aboriginal and others like Indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast. I've not listed every article with Aboriginal in the title because some like Aboriginal Peoples Television Network are the official names or historical names. And this got moved while I was writing it ip. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 05:29, 3 June 2017 (UTC)

The Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics (Unicode block) and Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics Extended articles should not be renamed because they reflect the Unicode block names used in The Unicode Standard. There are no blocks called "Unified Canadian Indigenous Syllabics" or "Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics Extended" in the standard. DRMcCreedy (talk) 06:08, 3 June 2017 (UTC)

• Aboriginal-based organized crime seems to be a term of art, so it shouldn't be moved. Aboriginal title is also a legal concept and referenced as such by the Supreme Court, and also shouldn't be moved. AFAIK, the others, besides the syllabics, are likely good to be moved, since they are not terms of art. ---- Patar knight - ^chat/_{contributions} 06:48, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
• Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics (Unicode block) and Unified Canadian Aboriginal Syllabics Extended are the official names of blocks of characters in the Unicode Standard and should not be renamed as all articles on Unicode blocks on Wikipedia (nearly 300 of them) reflect the official names used in the Unicode Standard.

  • Thanks. I did wonder about the syllabics but forgot to ask at Wikipedia:WikiProject Writing systems. I have unlinked and struck them out. I also struck out the ones that were moved while I was writing the original request. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 10:08, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
• Generally support but Oppose moving Canadian Aboriginal syllabics - this is a proper noun (syllabics should probably be capitalized). If you Google "Canadian Indigenous syllabics" you get nothing but "Canadian Aboriginal syllabics" instead. The name will probably be changed eventually by whatever linguistic body governs these things, but until then we should keep it as is. Hungarian Phrasebook (talk) 12:40, 3 June 2017 (UTC)
