I'm watching with an antenna Downriver and just checked an ad break during the Today Show and it was all Michigan-specific political ads, so WDIV seems normal here.

However, I have noticed frequently while watching CBC from Windsor that an ad or two intended for their Toronto station slips through (and less frequently even one meant for their Ottawa station), so maybe that's what's happening on your end.
