If they where discarded for electric typewriters, it means that they 
where historically used before. Wikipedia ( 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inuktitut_syllabics#Modifications ) ) 
states it happened in the 1970s. If I understood this correctly, it 
should not be too difficult to find use examples of these character, and 
I would be very surprised if such recent texts would not be thought fit 
for unicode encoding.
