Red Green is a fictional character, so the question really means his creator and performer, Steve Smith. As far as I can find, Smith is alive. He was born in Toronto on December 24, 1945, and he co-created and starred in The Red Green Show (CBC and other networks, 1991–2006, 15 seasons and 300 episodes). A Red Green Show page from late 2025 marks him turning 80 that Christmas Eve, and he has kept the character going since the series ended, with books and a Canadian Comedy Hall of Fame induction. I didn't find any report of his death. The most recent item I could reach was that 80th-birthday piece, so for anything newer, check his Wikipedia page). If you want to start with the show itself, Duct Tape Forever (2002) is the feature film that carries the character beyond the series.
