This article presents the results of twenty semi-structured interviews of Muslim junior college students in Quebec regarding the perceptions they have of how Islam and the Muslim world are presented in the secondary school curriculum. The analysis allows us to better understand how teachers’ transmission of their images and knowledge of Islam sometimes creates conflicts between Muslim youth and educational institutions, as well as with the social majority. We also look at how Muslim youth accommodate the conflicts engendered by stereotypical treatments of Islam in Québec schools while constructing their identity and their allegiance to Québec and to Canada.
