Careers: Acting, Performing, Directing/Not to SAG

Question
My question, is there a list of the actors not in SAG. If so where can I get a copy of it?

Answer
Unfortunately, there's no way there could be such a list.
If I need to know how many adult Americans do not own cars, I take away the number of licenses from the total number of adult Americans. We know how many SAG members there are, but we have no idea how many actors there are in total!
I wonder what answer you are trying to build towards?

Expertise

This is the place for Canadian answers! My company runs "The Advisors", a Toronto-based career-power network for performers, producers and entertainment artists of all sorts. I am a performer, and I have not had a joe-job in the last thirty-odd years, so I must be doing something right. I can talk about career moves, self-promotion, self-production, and the business sense that turns your art into a living.
