Do you have the hunspell-en_CA package installed in your Ubuntu?

Set to NEEDINFO.
Change back to UNCONFIRMED after you have provided the information.

Thanks for the reply. The issue was with the default installed dictionary. When the dict-en-20170701.oxt is installed the problem is resolved. My apologies for wasting your time. Do wish that the default installation would contain all the pieces necessary. thanks again for your time.
