that looks like the Minnesota State Insane Assylum but to tell the truth, I never really saw that particular perspective of it

No, but you're on the right track.

I'm guessing Alaska and i'm guessing its the last stop before every one parks their cars and either gets on a boat or a plane..
Is Alaska's Elmendorf Air Force Base and the United States Army Fort Richardson just outside the shot..?,

No. As I said, it's in Canada. But, yes, it is a sort of living quarters.

I simply typed in aerial FM2 in Google Image Search and it was the first result!

That's it. It's called a "Lodge" but it's actually housing for workers mining the tar sands at Ft. McMurray.

Question: I said up front that it's in Canada, and later, not in Ontario. I don't know what kind of "hints" I could leave without giving it away.

Here's a place that merits a "superlative" adjective in its description. The birds are Cormorants, but I'm not going to tell you which species, because that would narrow down the geography too much.
