Re: RCMP tolerates piracy for personal use in Canada.

The RCMP can't go after file sharers anyway considering it is not illegal.

 offspring, no, that's not quite true. A judge has struck down copyright cases related to sharing MUSIC files. That doesn't make downloading video or software legal at this time. Most people have assumed that if music is legal, then so is video and software. Moreover, it's only personal use from sharing that was permitted. You still can't sell, or broadcast material you've downloaded. That's definitely still a copyright violation.
