CollingwoodToday welcomes letters to the editor at [email protected] or via the website. Please include your full name, daytime phone number and address (for verification of authorship, not publication). The following letter was sent in response to a story about a Collingwood woman who chose to die by MAID earlier this week. 

Ms. Petryshyn’s wish for MAID (medical assistance in dying) and her courage in telling her story was her final gift to us all. We appreciate her honesty and determination and can learn a lot from it.
