The north-south split is the most striking, but yes south can be further divided into the GTA, SW (farm country and a small part of the rust belt, similar to the Midwest) and eastern (Ottawa and the townships: government and farms)
Michigan and Ohio are most similar to SW but upstate NY also bleeds culturally into the region, both around Niagara and the thousand islands.

Windsor to Ottawa is very different. That 90% of Canadians live within 100 miles of the border seems minimally related to culture differences and more geographic/economic.
