[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here you go OP.  I did the google search for you.  It isn't Switzerland, but Canada is much closer. https://alzheimer.ca/en/help-support/im-caring-person-living-dementia/end-life-care/medical-assistance-dying

There is information out there that is easily accessible via internet.  I recall reading a book about making a decision in advance about ending your life and the complications when it is for future and not current disability.  I can't for the life of me remember what book this was in (I think one about Alzheimer's), but main takeaway is that you have to plan this out well in advance.[/quote]

Looks like it's generally only for Canadians and not visitors. Not helpful for most of us.

Eligibility:  must "be eligible for health services funded by the Canadian federal government, or a province or territory (or during the applicable minimum period of residence or waiting period for eligibility). Generally, visitors to Canada are not eligible for [Medical assistance in dying] MAID."[/quote]
