I've always thought it was dumb to have three nearly-identical services between Niagara Falls and Toronto (VIA, GO and Amtrak), so I'm not to upset to see VIA go.
There aren't three services - there are two. The Amtrak train is run on a VIA schedule, stopping at VIA stations and operating with VIA crews. It happens to use Amtrak equipment because (a) switching trains/equipment at the border would be a pain that would turn customers away, and (b) VIA's isn't certified/regulated for use in the US.
