41. limited options,
I came of age living outside the US and didn't know Selective Service still existed!

So I never registered, and now I am much too old.

The first I heard of it was when the draft debate started up a few years ago.

However, I already have Canadian permanent residency and spend alot of time on both sides of the 49th.

But if they kicked the draft back into gear I don't really know what I could do, since they would probably be checking people leaving and entering the US at the airport and I would probably be arrested on the spot for non-compliance.

But it would be akward career wise since I travel back and forth constantly, I guess I would have to take Canadian citizenship.
