Where in Canada can I buy untreated Teff seeds?

This plant is great for all kinds of cooking. The plant originates in Africa somewhere I believe. I have called around with no success. If anyone can help, thanks so much!
Info on the plant as follows:

Teff, annual bunch grass, lovegrass, t'ef, toff, warm-season annual bunch grass
Eragrostis tef (Zuccagni) Trotter
Ethiopian: Tef
Oromigna: Tafi
Tigrigna: Taf

    Can't speak to "in Canada", but I heard of a grain grower who added tef to his crops down in the U.S. Can't remember the details, but I found that by Googling. Good luck. Have you tried stopping into some Ethiopian shops to ask?
