In Memory of Donna Faith was established following the death of Donna Duncan through Canada's Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) program on October 29, 2021.

 

Created by her family, this website began as a search for answers and has evolved into a resource dedicated to examining the questions raised by her death and the complex issues surrounding MAiD, mental health, healthcare decision-making, and accountability.

 

Donna's story has been featured in national media, public policy discussions, and in The Other Side of the Straitjacket: A Daughter's Story of Mental Illness and Assisted Dying by her daughter, Alicia Duncan.

 

Today, this website preserves Donna's story while providing resources for journalists, researchers, policymakers, healthcare professionals, families, and readers seeking to better understand the ethical, legal, medical, and social questions surrounding MAiD.
