The economy has been declining, however, because the    number of ships stopping at Saint Pierre has dropped steadily over the    years. In March 1989, an agreement between France and Canada set fish    quotas for Saint Pierre's trawlers fishing in Canadian and    Canadian-claimed waters for three years. The agreement settles a    longstanding dispute that had virtually brought fish exports to a    halt. The islands are heavily subsidized by France. Imports come    primarily from Canada and France.       National product: GDP - purchasing power parity - $66 million (1993    est.)       National product real growth rate: NA%       National product per capita: $10,000 (1993 est.)       Inflation rate (consumer prices): NA%       Unemployment rate: 9.6% (1990)       Budget:    revenues: $18.3 million    expenditures: $18.3 million, including capital expenditures of $5.5    million (1989 est.)       Exports: $30 million (f.o.b., 1991 est.)    commodities: fish and fish products, fox and mink pelts    partners: US 58%, France 17%, UK 11%, Canada, Portugal (1990)       Imports: $82 million (c.i.f., 1991 est.)    commodities: meat, clothing, fuel, electrical equipment, machinery,    building materials    partners: Canada, France, US, Netherlands, UK       External debt: $NA       Industrial production: growth rate NA%       Electricity:    capacity: 10,000 kW    production: 50 million kWh    consumption per capita: 6,013 kWh (1993)       Industries: fish processing and supply base for fishing fleets;    tourism       Agriculture: vegetables, cattle, sheep, pigs for local consumption;    fish catch of 20,500 metric tons (1989)       Economic aid:    recipient: Western (non-US) countries, ODA and OOF bilateral    commitments (1970-89), $500 million       Currency: 1 French franc (F) = 100 centimes       Exchange rates: French francs (F) per US$1 - 5.2943 (January 1995),    5.520 (1994), 5.6632 (1993), 5.2938 (1992), 5.6421 (1991), 5.4453    (1990)       Fiscal year: calendar year       Saint Pierre And Miquelon:Transportation       Railroads: 0 km       Highways:    total: 120 km    paved: 60 km    unpaved: earth 60 km (1985)       Ports: Saint Pierre       Merchant marine: none       Airports:    total: 2    with paved runways 914 to 1,523 m: 2       Saint Pierre And Miquelon:Communications       Telephone system: 3,601 telephones    local: NA    intercity: NA    international: radio communication with most countries in the world; 1    satellite link in French domestic satellite system       Radio:    broadcast stations: AM 1, FM 3, shortwave 0    radios: NA       Television:    broadcast stations: 0    televisions: NA       Saint Pierre And Miquelon:Defense Forces       Note: defense is the responsibility of France
