Bert has also been featured in recurring supporting or lead roles in TV Shows such as Finding Her Edge (Netflix, 2026) ,We Three Queens (outTV, 2023-2024), Holidazed (Hallmark, 2024) as well in supporting roles in feature films such as A Merry Little Ex-Mas (Netflix, 2025) My Husband's Worst Mistake (Lifetime, 2023), The Most Colorful Time Of The Year (Hallmark, 2022). Bertrand (Bert) Cardozo was born in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The son of two Telecom entrepreneurs, Martine (Deas) and Patrick Cardozo, Bert is the oldest of three siblings. Very early, Bert demonstrated exceptional abilities to easily assimilate concepts on top of having the most surprising memory. Intrigued, Bert's grand-mother, Jacqueline Turian, who was a teacher and writer, decided to use Bert's skills as part of a personal study showing that kids can learn at any stage of their lives. Using her own teaching method, Jacqueline was able to teach Bert the alphabet as well as how to put words together by the age of 18 months. When he was 12, over the summer vacation, Bert figured out that he could make his own movies using his parent's camcorder. He wrote and directed a short film that was shot in sequence to avoid post editing. He cast his siblings and cousins as actors and decided to not act in it himself to ensure that his vision materialized. At the age of 14, Bert's parents took the decision to send him to boarding school in Boca Raton, Florida to continue high school from the 10th grade on. It is there, at Saint-Andrew's School, that Bert discovered his passion for acting when he took Stagecraft as his required arts elective. The course was taught by Ms. Teresa Vignau who encouraged Bert to be a stage manager for 6 plays over the course of 3 semesters. As much as Bert wanted to audition for these plays and get to be on stage instead of off, he had to make some difficult choices and fulfill his other obligations as a tri-athlete. With his newly sparked passion, on a whim, Bert was eager to pursue acting in college. However, like any concerned parent, his father had other ambitions and strongly believed that the entertainment industry was filled with too much uncertainty. Ideally, that Bert would have a degree to fall back on. Bert reluctantly applied and got accepted to the Computer Science program at the University of Hartford in Connecticut. In the meantime, back home, his family was coping with growing safety concerns and his parents unwillingly decided to sell their business and move the entire family to Toronto, Canada. Bert was then pulled from the University of Hartford after his freshman year and arrived in Toronto in 2001. After spending a year studying Computer Science, Bert did not want to pursue that as a career. Still needing something to fall back on, Bert went to York University to study Economics. After four years of studies and a sabbatical year, determined to achieve his personal goals, Bert dropped out of school in 2006 and got accepted at the Toronto Film School where he graduated in 2008. Bert has been acting professionally since 2012 when he signed with Colin McMurray. From 2016 to 2023 he was represented by Stephanie Clement of Artists Management Inc.. As of October 2023, Bert is being represented by Seta James (as his agent and manager) of The Characters Talent Agency, one of the biggest talent agencies in Canada.
