Canada 150

Typeface commisioned by Canadian government designed to accomodate the country’s languages including their Aboriginal languages:

For what might be the first time, a single, unified typeface has been created that supports Canada’s two official languages, as well as our country’s Aboriginal languages.

The typeface, Canada 150, was created by Canadian typeface designer Raymond Larabie. He has offered his creation to the Government of Canada for the 150th anniversary of Confederation. The typeface includes all Latin characters and accents, common Cyrillic characters, and syllabic and diacritical elements contained in Canada’s Aboriginal languages. The typeface is provided in two weights: light and regular.
