Abstract
Based on interviews conducted in Quebec with 23 people with parents of different ethnic backgrounds and one of whom is Muslim by birth, this article explores how family transmission influences identity construction. More specifically, the article deals with how these mixed individuals identify themselves through certain identity references. The analysis highlights the essential role of family transmission in how individuals define themselves while showing the latitude they enjoy. It also shows that while their identity is linked to certain cultural references, identity markers such as language, religion, or nationality are not necessarily the most important elements for them.
