Yeah, St. Catharines, Niagara Falls and Fort Erie don't feel like they're part of Buffalo's hinterland at all, which might seem odd because Niagara Falls Ontario is essentially a twin city with Niagara Falls New York, and Fort Erie is right across the river from Buffalo. This is undoubtedly due to the proximity to Toronto, whereas Windsor is just way too far away from Toronto.

As others have said, there is little to no appreciable Detroit influence in London. I visit at least once a month, and I've never seen a Detroit sports jersey on anyone there. London is 200 km away from Windsor/Detroit, so it's not close.
