* A funny Canada Does Not Exist moment was related about [[David Cronenberg]]'s 1986 remake of ''[[The Fly]]'', shot in Toronto. During production, they hit a crisis moment when the script called for Jeff Goldblum's character to prominently pay someone $50 in cash. Cronenberg, himself a Canadian, couldn't decide whether to use Canadian or American currency. In the end, he opted for U.S. greenbacks, pretty ironic considering that the 1950's Vincent Price original, shot in Hollywood, was actually set in Montreal, and given that several of his other movies were unequivocally set in Canada, even if they had mostly American actors (like ''[[Videodrome]]'').
* ''[[Hedwig and theThe Angry Inch]]'' was supposed to be set somewhere in the American midwest, with Junction City, Kansas mentioned. The film was entirely shot in Toronto. On the "Making Of" documentary, you can clearly see the stores in the Eaton Centre, blurred out in the background of the finished film.
