I work with someone from Geraldton who is francophone. She speaks French very well and much better than the average Franco-Ontarian.

You are right that it goes a bit further west than Hearst.
If you count a few small towns and villages it also goes a bit further west than Sudbury on the southern corridor. Places like Blind River, Dubreuilville and Elliott Lake.
