For the record, this WP page has also the This article needs additional citations for verification box :D
But thanks. Next step: you also give the clues to quickly identify the body thanks to the link, so it won't take too much time for me and any interested person to try to understand what makes it specifically a Corbeil body. Maybe we'll come to a mutual understanding, one day :)

Let's assume that the black hood, the windshield shape and the part above the latter, with black paint around the lights, are the useful details.

According to coachbuilt.com:
Quote In 1985, Michel Corbeil and his partners were back in the [...] factory built by his father 50 years earlier.
[...] During the first year, manufacturing 77 single wheels mini-buses. By 1991, product offering expanded with the introduction of dual wheel and conventional models, all built on the same assembly line.


This one should then be a 1991+ model. But no hood side emblem can be seen in this picture, it's therefore impossible to say if it is a 1991-94 (without the concerned emblem) 3700 or 3800 model, or a 1995-2001 3800 one.
The Wikipedia page says that only 3800 versions were used, but once more, no external source is given for this statement.

I know that the series is shot in Canada, but it's funny to use a bus that was apparently only sold in Canada if the action is supposedly taking place in N.Y.C. :)

That non-U.S. Toyota Echo in I Love You Beth Cooper is another example of a Canada only vehicle used in a show set in the U.S.

Some (all?) other models with a Corbeil body are apparently set with a Canadian Built in information, in the IMCDb. As the chassis is US made, which one prevails?

What makes it a Corbeil is how the warning lights are displayed and the black paint surround...The only reason I used Wikipedia was for the pic only....

Corbeil used to be a Canadian company, it is now a subsidiary of Collins Bus (a US company headquartered in Kansas)

Corbeil Bus Corporation is a school and commercial bus manufacturer, based in Hutchinson, Kansas. It was created from the acquisition of predecessor Les Enterprises Michel Corbeil by Collins Industries in 2007. Collins markets the Corbeil brand name throughout Canada, and as special order buses in the United States.

With this loose rod, it's most certainly this bus rented by the Canadian MK Picture Car Services. No more details given in the dedicated page, except a smaller model year range (1995-2001, due to the 1995+ hood side badge), and the engine type: the 444 ci / 7.3 l T444E (Turbocharged, 444 ci, Electronic controlled) also used by Ford as Power Stroke engine.

Yes, made for Canada due to red flashing lights only above the windscreen.
