St. Pierre.....North American or European Signs?

The islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon are located only 25 km from the south coast of Newfoundland but they are an overseas territory of France. Do they follow a North American or European sign standard?

I’ve seen the occasional St. Pierre plated vehicle passing through here on the Trans Canada…..a rectangular European style.  The “Euro” is the local currency there and I’ve heard the wine served is excellent…….A little bit of Europe so closer to Canada!

how does one get to St. Pierre and Miquelon?  Ferry?  Since I'm an EU citizen, I figure it should be absolutely no problem for me to get past passport controls, correct?

There might be a better image (no street view), but circles - seems like it'll be full French standards.
