This episode was the last filmed production ever staged at Maple Leaf Gardens (Godwin Coliseum in the episode) before the interior was demolished to make way for a supermarket and a Ryerson University athletic centre. The last production to use Maple Leaf Gardens was a taped reality show (Battle of the Blades) which took place about 6 weeks after the Flashpoint episode.
The episode's main protagonist is named Darren and his father is named Andrew. The paramedic who appears early in the episode was portrayed by Drew Finnie, whose full given name is Andrew. Drew's younger brother is named Darren. The identical names were purely coincidental.
