Sometimes, the alternative(s) must be clearly presented, as you have
just done Jean-Francois.
Personally, I love the concept of 'socially responsible investing'.

That's a bad move by BMO. I guess that the if and else parts of their
algorithm have been swapped / inverted. I stopped using BMO a long
time ago, way before the BMO name came out. I'm now with Tangerine and
I am rather happy. On another note, I was the victim of a fraud of
over $20,000 from a customer of BMO. They did absolutely nothing about
the account that stole the money. Tahberine and their team solved the
problem and I got all my money back.

Fear not. Linux IS still supported, and so is Firefox. But, the new
BMO
backend blocks the use of Firefox ESR versions (Extended Support
Release
/ v140.5.0 on Gentoo), and requires a rapid version (which are
flagged
as unstable on Gentoo / v143, v144, or v145 - 145 works with BMO)
Seems odd that a bank would require the use of an unstable version
of a
browser, or is this just Gentoo's "we've not tested it fully"
definition
of unstable?
BMO do have a page on their website which states "BMO InvestorLine's
website is best viewed on Windows with Microsoft Internet Explorer
version 8.0 or higher, or Mozilla Firefox version 3.0 or higher."
It doesn't fill me with security confidence...
