From the context menu I want to always search using Google dot CA, not dot COM

I have already edited "keyword.URL" in about:config This didn't work for the context menu when you highlight a term to search and use the "Search Google for...

It works for typing the search term directly into the URL address bar, but not the search from the context menu.

I already had Google selected there. This still uses dot com for the resulting search page that opens, I wanted to have it open with google dot ca.

I just found this add-on from MyCroft Project

Part way down this page, number 5, is Google.ca Search Bar . Click the previous link to add this engine to the list of the FireFox search engines (on the drop down menu) did the trick, so I guess I solved my own problem. See attached menu capture. I hope this helps someone else, as it took me quite a while to find. It wasn't found in any of the standard Add-Ons you can find at the usual Mozilla multiple pages of add-ons

You will need to select Google in your Search bar also

Check and tell if its working.
