During the Due South Convention, we took a tour of places that were shooting locations. This was just one of many.
According to Wikipedia;
"George Brown House was home to a Father of Confederation, the Reform Party politician and publisher George Brown. The Architects were William Irving and Edward Hutchings. Brown built the Second Empire-style home, which he named Lambton Lodge, between 1874 and 1876. He died in the house after having been shot by a disgruntled employee.
It was declared a National Historic Site in 1976, but was then in a bad state of disrepair. Threatened by demolition, the Ontario Heritage Trust intervened. The agency restored the house and re-opened it in 1989 as a conference centre with tenant offices on the upper floors."
