    Accent grave on French Canadian Keyboard

    Hello,

    I've recently started using the Canadian French Keyboard on my new Window 10 desktop. Unfortunately, I am having trouble finding the "u accent grave" on the keyboard. I could pretty much do every other accented alphabet but the "u accent grave".

    My keyboard have special keys for é, è, , ç, and everything else with "accent circonflex" or "le tréma" are manual.

    I also have a mac and the "u accent grave" is the tilde key next to 1 at the top left hand corner on that keyboard. On the PC, however it's the forward and back slash. I've exhausted every other option I could find on the internet so if anyone could kindly
    show me what to do that'll be awesome.

    Thank you.
