Recognition of the role of Basque sailors and settlers in the islands' socio-economic configurations is the reason why the Ikurriña is the unofficial flag of Saint Pierre and Miquelon off Newfoundland, Canada. The people in the currently self-governing territorial overseas collectivity of France never will forget the agricultural, architectural, craft, culinary, engineering, literary, and pastoral contributions of one of the world's bravest and oldest mountain- and sea-based cultures.
