Canadian flying JetBlue from FLL to HAV - problems?

When buying my ticket....I was told by JetBlue that the US regulations restricting US citizens to one of 12 reasons for being able to go into Cuba did NOT apply to me as I am a Canadian. This was a few months ago so I went ahead and purchased tickets for my family and I.

While trying to add additional details to my online booking in advance of the flight (departing in 10 days; need to enter passport info, etc.), I again could not proceed without indicating a reason for my visit. I called JetBlue to reconfirm that this part does not apply to me and how to get around it and was told by a senior manager that even though I'm Canadian, the US law still applies and I have to pick a reason. I don't feel comfortable lying, but not sure what to do. Should I cancel all of my Cuba trip plans and get a refund from JetBlue for not providing accurate information as to my ability to travel? Help!
