Sea plane rating in Niagara?

I’m considering a visit to the Niagra Falls region in the summer and though I might dovetail it with a sea plane rating. A quick google search finds only one flying school in the region and they don’t appear to offer the rating. Anyone have any suggestions?

Otherwise, there are no suitable bodies of water near Niagara Falls for float flying. Lakes Ontario and Erie are much too large and potentially rough, the rivers and bays nearby are too crowded or built up. 100 miles north of Toronto is where the float flying sized lakes begin, and they continue 500 miles north from there. There are a few wheel schools closer to Niagara Falls (mostly in the Toronto area).
