While iOS 9.1 beta testers have long had access to new emojis as part of Unicode 8.0, today’s public iOS 9.1 release means everyone now has access to a couple Canadians will want to use and show off to friends who haven’t updated yet.
We’re referring to the hockey stick and puck (Update: that’s a field hockey stick and ball, we’re blind, apologies). Also, if you’re having a bad day, the ‘middle finger’ also makes its debut, as part of 150 new emoji characters within iOS 9.1.
There are a bunch of other fun emoji to use and they should make messaging friends more lively (unlike real-life conversations nowadays, where emojis aren’t available).
For a full breakdown of all the new emoji, check out this amazing post over at Emojipedia.

(Unlike real life conversations where Emoji’s aren’t available)….that’s hilarious
Only call me if you’re on fire! If not, poke me on Facebook if something is important!

Field hockey sticks not lacrosse sticks in that photo
So blind. Not enough espresso.
