Does anyone know if they use Euro's there now?

Apparently they do.. I never thought about that.. always imagined they used Canuck dollars for simplicity's sake?

Since St. Pierre and Miquelon are considered part of France, the euro is legal tender.

They used francs before, so no reason why they wouldn't be using euros. Same for other French posessions.

Right -- but in a strict legal sense, St. Pierre and Miquelon is not a possession, it's a department of France on an equal footing with Paris or any other department. The French are pretty sensitive about that.
