Locale is en_CA (English/Canada) but environment shows PAPERSIZE=a4 - HOW??

[morciej]

I am not sure if mintlocale even touches this, but here's the issue:

~$ printenv | grep PAPER
LC_PAPER=en_CA.UTF-8
PAPERSIZE=a4

WHAT???

For those who don't know, Canada uses US paper sizes, so the most common size here is "letter".

This is really odd, but explains why every piece of software I am running defaults to A4 paper size before I set it right. However, /etc/papersize file contains "letter".

It's a fresh upgrade to Mint 21.1
