I really know right from wrong and apply that to my life. At home, I was the oldest of three. My role was to be the responsible one.

I don't like to play characters that are one note, and just the attractive girl in the film.

I'm a regular Canadian girl. I enjoy staying home. In the summer I've got a garden. I'm very much a homebody, a normal, family-oriented girl. But I do have this other incredible side of my life that involves acting and traveling.

The problem with TV now is that there's so much competition, that you're always on the chopping block.

I think it's so wrong to play the victim. There's too many brave women out there that just won't even tolerate it, you know?

I think, as an artist, whether you're making people laugh or cry or be frustrated or excited - the fact that you're generating some sort of emotion out of an audience is, to me, worth it.

The pressure to be pretty? I set, you know, boundaries and goals for myself. I try not to compare myself to anyone else because I will never be anyone else except myself. So I try and stay true to me, and hopefully the right projects will come my way.
