I nominate C and Q. But I am willing to hear other nominations with arguments.
C: it’s copies K and S. it doesn’t even have a sound of its own. Pathetic.
Q: it’s dependant on the letter u to do it’s dirty work and can easily be replaced by kw.
U. Elimination of the letter would stop the Canadian overuse of same.

Why do you hate superfluous u’s?
W. I mean even the name says it can get by with UU. You knouu uuhat I mean?

What kills me is that you overuse it, but, you really never need it. Just spell the words the way you say them. For example: “Let’s go oot and aboot!” See, no “u” needed.

You stupid Americans can’t even mock our accent correctly.
We don’t say oot and aboot
We say oat and aboat

Nope. My Canadian buddies from Hamilton live right next to your dumb ass and they say “oot and aboot.”
C can also sound like ‘ch’ - e.g., cello. No other letter on its own can do the ‘ch’ sound. And would you really want a word like “chew†spelled “khew� I don’t think C is the useless letter winner of this useless discussion.

Listen more carefully. Nobody says oot I’ve never heard that. We say oat.

I can’t believe you’re arguing that you sound even less educated than originally proposed

So you’re saying that C does the job of two other letters, plus does the “ch” sound as well? It’s a multi-tasker. Sounds like you could get rid of S and K before getting rid of C.

Perfect example of using K to replace C:

"A Plan for the Improvement of Spelling in the English Language
By Mark Twain
For example, in Year 1 that useless letter “c†would be dropped to be replased either by “k†or “sâ€, and likewise “x†would no longer be part of the alphabet. The only kase in which “c†would be retained would be the “ch†formation, which will be dealt with later. Year 2 might reform “w†spelling, so that “which†and “one†would take the same konsonant, wile Year 3 might well abolish “y†replasing it with “i†and iear 4 might fiks the “g/j†anomali wonse and for all.
Generally, then, the improvement would kontinue iear bai iear with iear 5 doing awai with useless double konsonants, and iears 6-12 or so modifaiing vowlz and the rimeiniing voist and unvoist konsonants. Bai iear 15 or sou, it wud fainali bi posibl tu meik ius ov thi ridandant letez “câ€, “y†and “xâ€â€”bai now jast a memori in the maindz ov ould doderez —tu riplais “châ€, “shâ€, and “th†rispektivili.
