I was just watching a MSNBC news report saying the American Congress passed some Bill. Why? What was wrong with the old way?

If you're referring to daylight savings time, the US is the only country that does that. If you're not referring to DST, I have no idea what you're talking about.

Basically, the change allows for an extended period of daylight savings. Read this: In 2007 Daylight Saving Time begins on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. This pattern will be followed by all provinces which observe daylight saving time and each province has amended their legislation to reflect this change. Previously, Canada had observed Daylight Saving Time from the first Sunday in April until the last Sunday in October.
This change in Daylight Saving Time will keep Canada's Daylight Saving Time pattern consistent with the United States which enacted into law a broad energy bill that will extend Daylight Saving Time in the same manner.
