Ok just one thing it is actually illegal to sell seeds in canada unless you have an import licence and a licence to sell.
This has been Law since Law was ever made, now that being said many sell the seeds in shops as cops not care cause its the ppl who buy and grow the seeds legally is the ones breaking the law more so.
Now about legalizing weed for recreational i am all for it.
I just hope they not screw us around who are legal medicinal growers and smokers.
Also there better be a limit on how much can be stored at their residence as I as a legal grower have a limit.
Sorry but that is incorrect.
Here's the info from the CDSA.
"Non-viable" seeds have already been argued in court as a seed unplanted.
Scroll to the bottom where is says "Except for non viable seeds"
