Did people live with their families in fur trade posts?
Most men were not married when they first became involved in the fur trade. European women were extremely rare in the fur trade, and almost all of those women arrived with their husbands. Many fur trade men formed relationships with First Nations women, some going through a form of marriage in accorance with First Nations customs. Many children were born from such relationships.

How did the fur trade shape the Canadian identity?
no. ------ No, there is no "Canadian" identity. Canada is a Confederation of many Nations and cultures, each with their own identity. The fur trade has played a large role in many of those Nations and Cultures but each has it's own interpretation. For example if your culture was trapping and trading the furs you would have one view. On the other hand if your ancestors were taking the furs to Europe for resale you would have a different view on how the fur trade shaped your identity. If your ancestors bought furs from others and traded to yet others who then sold the furs on the open market you would have yet another view on how the fur trade shaped your identity. If your forefathers never traded in furs and only used the routes created by fur traders you would have yet another view of the fur trade.
