Sticking caliper? Collapsed flexible brake line? Are the pads wearing evenly? How do the rotors look? Are the wheel bearings OK?

Your left side isn't working as well as the right side.

Check your brake linings, if all looks well, then check the lines and calipers, as iTurbo mentioned. Perhaps one of the calipers or wheel cylinders on the right side is sticking, or a rubber brake line on the left side is ballooning from the pressure.
