    The problem I have with it is it is not at the end of your life technically. Like why can’t I pre arrange when this happens I want it. Now I have to do it well I am still of sound mind and body which means I would still have some good days left. Why couldn’t you enjoy those. Cause some diseases when they get bad it is to late to make the decision.

      Quebec is the only province that allows you to leave directives ahead of time. You can specify that if you have dementia and are no longer aware of the world around you, you can end your life.

      As far as I know you can leave sealed instructions with a lawyer in that circumstance. Though I have not looked into it.
