There is some grade inflation showing up in the Fraser Institute data, but not to the degree that the U of C averages from 1999 would indicate. The overall Grade 12 average was 69.9 in 1999 versus 74.1 in 2019. (Exam mark + school versus exam difference)

I seem to remember through the 90's entrance requirements dropped a lot as the Universities expanded.
