On the topic of legal tender, are postage stamps also considered legal tender? I was once told that they are an issue of the government of Canada, carry a monetary face value, and therefore have to be treated as legal tender. I've also been told by others that this was strictly a wartime measure or something like that. Does anyone know the definitive ruling on this?

I believe its illegal to refuse it to pay off a debt, not to purchase something.
EDIT - oops, already said
