The Marijuana Party of Canada is selling pot seeds to raise money.
"We're going to do it to fund the campaign and the movement in general," said party leader Marc-Boris St-Maurice, who's running against Prime Minister Paul Martin in Montreal.
"We're going to be doing this for the remainder of our existence until pot is legal."
The party buys the seeds in bulk from Canadian suppliers such as Willy Jack and Sensi Seeds.
Then, it sells packs of 10 at prices ranging from $10 for non-viable "decorative" seeds through to "thoroughbred, Cannabis Cup-winning" varieties at $400 a pop.
St-Maurice said the party has sold only five or six packs since the campaign began.
"It's by no means a gold mine yet, but it will come. It's a very political action."
A Montreal police officer said Sunday it is unlikely St-Maurice would be prosecuted for selling seeds.
The Criminal Code prohibits possession of marijuana, as well as growing and trafficking, but selling seeds seems to fall into a grey area.
"It appears not to be illegal in that people who are doing it are not being charged for doing it," said Neil Boyd, a professor of criminology at Simon Fraser University and author of High Society, a book on marijuana in Canada.
Marijuana seeds have so little THC -- the psychoactive ingredient -- that the courts might hear an argument that the seeds are not a drug, he said.
