Thanks! A colleague of mine says that the film shows the parade passing the corner of Portage Avenue and Maryland Street. The last part of the film, where Santa Claus exits the float, shows the back of the Eaton's store on Graham Avenue.
That would be great. Although there's something to be said about the poorer quality of the older cameras that adds a certain charm to the films. Thanks for your interest!
Hey that's great! We've had lots of people inquiring about the location of the parade route. Thanks a lot for looking into this and for your interest in our channel.

Does anyone know what street this is and what the store is in the background with the red and white roof is? Thanks.
Thanks for that. I was wondering where that was filmed. I thought it was Portage Ave. That was so cool!!
Another winner! Thanks for uploading.
unreal.
definitely the corner of Portage and Sherbrooke, heading south.
It is amazing that this thing exists in color.
That would be great. Although there's something to be said about the poorer quality of the older cameras that adds a certain charm to the films. Thanks for your interest!

Thank God for Technicolor. The colours look just as vibrant as when the film was printed.

Kodachrome, actually. The same type of film that Abraham Zapruder used. Technicolor was strictly for Hollywood productions.
