The gas station and cafe where Stan gets off the bus is the 1928 Ford Dealership at Country Heritage Park, an open-air museum recreating rural life in the 19th century in Milton, Ontario.

The Salvation Army alley from the rainy scene was filmed at the Cotton Factory in Hamilton.

This former industrial building from 1900 is today a creative complex, with space for workshops, galleries, and offices.

Also, a street between the warehouses of the Cotton Factory was used to record the scene taking place after Stan and Molly ran away from Grindle's garden (pictured).

The restaurant where Stan and Clem eat after the Salvation Army scene is the barroom at the Halfway House Inn at Black Creek Pioneer Village in North York.

Opened in 1960, this heritage museum is a step back in time. Most of the buildings, dating back to the early 19th-century, were moved to the location from across Ontario.

The interior of the house was filmed in the corridors, library, and dining room of the famous Casa Loma in Toronto.
