TRURO - A former teacher's assistant charged with sex-related charges had his matter adjourned until Aug. 1.

Todd Canton, 53, of Truro, didn't appear in provincial court Monday morning, however, his lawyer, Amber Snow, appeared on his behalf.

Snow told the court she needs additional time and requested the adjournment.

Canton, who has been charged with luring a child over the Internet, invitation to sexual touching and failing to comply with his undertaking, will appear at 9:30 a.m. that day.
