Use the Unicode column type in your table declarations for these columns, or for global behavior you can add convert_unicode=True to your create_engine() arguments (not the url). With this driver you can also get some increased efficiency by having it do the Unicode translation. If all you've added to the engine URL is 'charset' it should already be in Unicode mode- try adding 'use_unicode=1' to the url as well if you're not getting Unicode strings from queries.
