Canadian Lesbian Couple Forced to Fill Out Separate Customs Forms

My question is what would they do if it was a family with children? What would they do with the children? Whose form do they go on? Or are they then allowed to fill out one form because the couple are both the legal parents? Also, you’re not supposed to lie to the customs agents. So when they ask if you’re travelling with someone and what your relationship is with that person what are you supposed to say? “Well we’re married but I’m not sure if I’m allowed to use that term with you because you don’t recognize the relationship”? Tsk tsk USA border agents.
