Running FF56.0 on Linux Mint 18.2: When I right click on 'open link in new tab' FF also opens the link in main window on this website only - https://beta.theglobeandmail.com/. Does not do this on other websites or with other browsers. Any suggestions? Could it somehow be caused by an extension?

Thanks in advance.

I am able to reproduce your issue but it is not clear what is the problem. I will mostly create a bug report for this.

Middle click to open it in a new tab works though so you can use this a workaround until a proper solution is found.
