This is totally untrue. AP classes are very good if he wants to go to a US university. Even if he stays in Canada he'll have a huge leg up.
Plus they were way more suited to me when I went. No busy work homework, better teachers, better discussions in class, it was far more like university than a regular class. Pretty sure it even counted as a prerequisite for a few classes which allowed me to skip ahead.
They are totally worth it. In fact my biggest mistake was not taking all AP classes.
