I'm selecting the MBP keyboard layout in Ubuntu and I'd like to use command keys instead of ctrl keys (copy, paste, save, close, etc.).

What about using a program like xbindkeys http://www.nongnu.org/xbindkeys/xbindkeys.html (available in synaptic) to remap the keys a la http://www.enterprisenetworkingplanet.com/netos/article.php/3687781/Master-Your-Linux-Keyboard-And-Fix-Caps-Lock-Forever.htm

I think the default keyboard manager treats the MacBook's cmd key the same way as the Windows "Super" Key. So going System->Preferences->Keyboard and changing the "Alt/Win Key Behavior" so that the "Win" key acts as a Control may work.

Not sure if the fact that you're running Ubuntu in Parallels is going to complicate matters...
