Ladybug on raspberry bush?

Toronto, Canada

I found guys like this sitting on a bunch of my raspberry leaves this morning. They look like ladybugs but they seem to be immobile or dead, even when I try to flick them off, and their spots are not exactly like other ladybugs I've ever seen, they're not quite as black. Could it be something else?

Possibly the multicolored Asian Lady beetle. It does not appear to be any of the common pests found on raspberries
