Command line output language does not match locale

So I recently had an "excellent" idea to add a second locale to my computer (zh-CN). To test it, I set it to the primary. It worked, so I changed it back to the old one (en-CA). However, now all of my command-line output is in Chinese! I tried to fix it by setting the locale to en_CA.UTF-8. This did not work and the CLI output is still chinese.
Code:LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LC_CTYPE="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_CA.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=en_CA.UTF-8That is the output of my locale.
I found that by running export LC_ALL=C, I could get it back to english but UTF 8 characters do not work. I would prefer my terminal support UTF 8 and English like it used to.
I also added to my bash startup profile
Code:export LC_ALL=en_CA.UTF-8
export LANG=en_CA.UTF-8
export LANGUAGE=ento no avail. I also tried using locale-gen to generate en-CA only. I also noticed that the Firefox file selection dialogue is also in Chinese.

Every setting page I can find says my locale is en-CA or en-US (which are both fine). Can anyone help me fix this?

I am on Manjaro Linux 23.0.1 KDE Edition
