"I don't think they expect you bring them gifts individually. I'd bring a gift for the gf and another for the family for having you there, A great gift idea I think is to bring British sweets. Canada has Cadbury products but the chocolate…"

However, she's been saying over skype for a while that they're very keen to meet me and think rather highly of me based of what she's been telling them.I'm going to Canada this December to visit her. Since we're…See More

"I disagree that ethics necessarily reflect morals. Virtues, maybe. But manners and ethics are social constructs, not moral ones. Morals *may* come into play, but are not necessarily part of the equation. "
