Well, Taualumna, we can look at the issue three ways.
Firstly, if Canadians are "registered" when they turn 18, then clearly that's not a concern for Canadian Brothers, is it? Do you think my fraternity would not understand that voter registration might be different in a different country?
Secondly, most people who want to be Alphas KNOW they want to be Alphas for a while. They don't just show up the first week of school, attend and interest meeting, and GET PICKED. We don't pick people we don't know. IF Canadian Brothers DO have to show proof of registration when they apply, then they had just better get a photocopy of their card made BEFORE they surrender it to vote.
Finally, I already said above:

We only have one chapter in Canada and I don't know what they do to resolve the issue.

That chapter is relatively new, and I don't know any of them. If I run into any, I'll be sure to get the OFFICIAL answer.
