I couldn't reproduce this. Checking with xev, the right alt and right control
keys generate key events when the Windows keyboard layout is Canadian
Multilingual Standard, although it seems that right control generates the same
X keysym as left control with that layout for some reason.
Can you clarify how you are checking for the keypresses?
Please attach your /var/log/XWin.0.log as well.
