A Good Death is a profile of Saskatoon artist Jeanette Lodoen before, during, and after her death by medical assistance in dying. She granted CBC News unrestricted access to herself and her family in her final days because she wanted to share what an assisted death is like with families, health professionals, and lawmakers.
