'Not Dead Yet' Star Gina Rodriguez Loves Canadians But Thinks We're 'Passive Aggressive'

Not Dead Yet actress Gina Rodriguez is sharing how she feels about Canadians.

The Jane the Virgin star has worked in Canada in the past and she seems to have a lot of love for the people who live here. However, she also thinks Canadians have one flaw when it comes to their behaviour.

Rodriguez made the comments in an interview with Etalk.

"I love my Canadians. I've done a lot of projects in Canada, Vancouver and Toronto," she said at the start of the clip that's been shared on social media.

"I'm a big fan, big big fan of you all."

She also called Canadians "nice, kind, loving" before calling us "passive aggressive."

So we’re passive aggressive, eh? 🇨🇦 Gina Rodriguez sends her love to Canada, but also humbles us by calling us out for our one major flaw 😅 #GinaRodriguez #Canada #Canadian #Toronto #Vancouver #LaurenAsh #NotDeadYet

"I'm kidding, but not, let's be real. No, I'm kidding, I'm joking," she later said.

The American actress then mentioned that her Not Dead Yet co-star Lauren Ash (who happens to be Canadian) is dating a Latino.

"I feel like our worlds are merging. I'm learning Canadianisms, she's learning Latinoisms and it's pretty special."

Not Dead Yet also stars Canadian actress Hannah Simone so Rodriguez is surrounded by more than one person from Canada on set.

The actress didn't mention which Canadianisms she's picked up on so we're hoping she ends up sharing those at some point!
