Effective October 12, 2005
Free Allowance
Air Canada and its regional carrier allow each customer to bring two pieces of luggage in Hospitality Service and three pieces in Executive Class/Executive First, which is carried in the baggage compartment of the aircraft at no charge. This is known as the 'free checked baggage allowance'. The overall measurement of each piece (L + W + H) must be less than 62 inches or 158 cm, and the weight less than 50 lbs. or 23 kgs (except on flights to/from Brazil, Japan, China, South Korea or Hong Kong, where the bags may weigh up to 70lbs). Don't exceed these limits or you'll have to pay an additional amount (effective October 12, 2005) at the airport prior to travel. Note that checked baggage weighing more than 70 lbs or 32 kgs. will not be accepted.
Infants not occupying a seat are allowed one smaller 50 lb. piece with an overall measurement of no more than 45 ins. or 115 cm. Air Canada also carries the following baby equipment in the baggage compartment, free of charge: car seat, baby seat, bassinet and stroller.

Havent verified this officially, but was recently told by my travel agent that the baggage allowance for KLM was reduced to 2 bags of 23 Kgs..
Looks like other airlines are following suit...

lufthansa allows 32 kgs each with hand carry of 8 kg unless this too has changed, i am flying on the 27th oct, but here's a thing there is notin much to carry anyway from canada to india, yes it will make sense to have more baggage allowance from india to canada

Hopefully AirCanada won't start putting limits on passenger's weight!! 
(Max 75 kg , pay 20 CAD/kg over the limit!!!)
Lufthansa is planning to reduce the weight to 23 kgs from 32 kgs.It will be effective from november I was told.
