    LibreOffice is the top open source choice, and it has been the default choice for Linux users for more than a decade. I’d recommend everyone to have a try

    FreeOffice is listed here, but their paid product, Softmaker Office is not. They still offer a non-subscription Desktop Office Suite here: https://www.softmaker.com/en/shop/softmaker-office

    Disclaimer: I’m a user of the product. I have no affiliation with the company.

      It is listed, but didn’t include their company name “Office NX” mostly due to space reasons ( I understand though that the full name is the most recognisable).

    I grew up with word perfect. Shame what happened to that.

    Sadly, there are too many excellent Canadian options. But thought I would share in case WordPerfect or Open Sourced options would be of interest :)
