While Fort Erie, Ontario, is directly across the river from Buffalo, Fort Erie is a town and not a city. Three Canadian cities (Port Colborne, Welland and Niagara falls) would appear to be equidistant. Which one of them is closest would depend on the method of measurement.
From downtown to downtown, the nearest Canadian city to Buffalo would be Port Colborne. However, if measured from the closest point on Buffalo's border to the closest point on a Canadian city's boundary, the winner would be Niagara Falls, Ontario.
