Duncan Wallace

Duncan Douglas Wallace was an Anglican bishop.[1][2]

Duncan and Mary Wallace in Milton ON, 1976

Born in Ontario in 1938, he was raised and educated in Winnipeg, Manitoba, obtaining a BA from the University of Winnipeg and M.Div. from St. John's College, Winnipeg. He was ordained a deacon in 1964 and priest in 1965.

From 1965 to 1969 he was at Fairform First Nations Mission; 1969 to 1974 at St. Anne's, Winnipeg; 1974 to 1978 at Grace Church, Milton, Ontario; 1978 to 1997 he was the Rector of St. Paul's Cathedral (Regina) and Dean of Qu'Appelle, Saskatchewan. In 1997 he was elected tenth Bishop of Qu'Appelle. A considerable amount of his time as Bishop was taken up by court actions against the diocese on behalf of long previous students. Their lawsuits came near to ruining the diocese, as occurred to the former Anglican Diocese of Cariboo in the Ecclesiastical Province of British Columbia and Yukon. Formed in 1914, that diocese ceased operations on December 31, 2001 after being forced into bankruptcy, only able to continue as Anglican Parishes of the Central Interior.

He retired in 2005.[3][4][5]

Wallace is married to Mary Emily, a school principal with the Regina Public School Board. "They have two children, daughter...Lisa Wallace...Markesteyn...[and] a son, Andrew."[6]
