I have gotten so much help here from fellow Canadians about finding better cheese that I am positively giddy about heading to Ottawa when the weather is better <3

Thanks Sandi ..... had no idea.
I'm not too far from Armstrong BC so I think I will be heading in there once the weather is good for some of their cheeses ... apparently Armstrong Cheese have a great cheese shop there and they sell to the public. If it's still there! Will have to check.
Also, I noticed about sweetener .... I use Wholesome Organic, from my local health food store "Natures Fare" .... not sure if you have one in your area .... it's great because it's "0 glycemic, 0 calories, 0 artificial".
I spent a wonderful few days in Ottawa for a wedding a few years ago - beautiful city! My cousin lives somewhere near there now .... in Greely ??
Have a great day 
Paula
