Hello! Can you tell me about Saint Pierre and Miquelon? 
 Sure! They sound like two countries, but they are a French collectivity made up of several small islands near the eastern coast of Canada. Newfoundland is the closest Canadian province. SaintPierre and Miquelon is the only territory left of the former colonial New France. 
 Cool! Can you tell me about the economy? 
 You bet! Saint Pierre and Miquelon have issued their own stamps since 1885. There was a period between 1978 through 1986 when French stamps, not specific to the islands, were used. 
 Anything else you can tell me about the economy? 
 Sure! About 70% of the islands' goods are imported from parts of France via Nova Scotia and from Canada. 
 Interesting! How is the transportation industry there? 
 Getting better. There was not a direct flight from the islands to France through 2018. In 2019, direct flights were added between 24 June and 11 September. 
 That's cool! What else can you tell me about the transportation? 
 A pair of automobile ferries were added at Fortune, Newfoundland to the islands in 2018. 
 Great! Thanks for your help! 
 You are welcome!
