In this essay we will see how trade has effected the location I have selected in the last assignment this location as you recall is Pierrefonds, Quebec. We will look at the positives and or negatives that trade has had on this location and if anything could be changed to improve this situation.
How does trade effect Pierrefonds, Quebec this is a very good question and if you asked any one person they would say trade has no effect what so ever because Pierrefonds is developed area that really does not produce anything to trade.

Because Pierrefonds is so diverse the people there consume a lot of food that is not found here in Canada such as Inca Cola or olives.

And if we stopped importing food products from other places a lot of business would suffer because we have a lot of specialty food shops.
