Doug et al,
I had an amazing opportunity to visit St Pierre et Miquelon (SPM) three years ago to conduct some research on tourism development. It's really a fascinating little place, which is proudly French but borrows much from Canada. The 'border' crossing between Canada and SPM was interesting, especially since only 13 people were on the same flight I was on. It was clear entering SPM that I was not entering the EU! Strange setup with its own entry/border stamp in the passport, etc. It is VERY distinctively European French, and they are offended by ignorant tourists' perceptions that they are somehow politically related to Quebec.
