Obviously there were some that used them as they were designed to get a broader range of education.
I guess the argument would be "if it changes one persons mind" it will be worth it but my guess is for the most part people will do the minimum to get through and not really care much about the subject matter.
I would prefer a general Canadian History course be used instead as I don't think Indian history is more important than the countries history overall.

Agree with everything you said, mainly the last part. Would much prefer a general Canadian history class.
