Once upon a time in Ontario, Canada

Zeneido, when you humble servant here taught in the Ontario, Canada public school system, our management insisted that the outcomes of every class grading for a course must be a bell curve. We were under pressure to meet a "bell curve quota." Therefore, this writer would say at the start of the course, because of this bell curve requirement, some of you must fail, and you must figure out who it will be. It is sad to have to do this.
