"In 2022, Canada became the first country to release statistical information about its transgender and non-binary populations based on census data. Moreover, following a 2018 government-wide policy direction, Statistics Canada’s surveys have been collecting and disseminating information about gender by default rather than sex at birth. Due to the small size of the transgender and non-binary populations, disseminating safe statistical information about them at detailed geographical levels poses a challenge. The dissemination strategy adopted for the 2021 Census, which was subsequently adapted and recommended for surveys, is centered on a new 2-category gender variable (Men+, Women+) that includes non-binary persons. In this paper, the methodological considerations that have gone into creating and adopting this approach, which is deemed both inclusive of non-binary people and safe, are highlighted"--Abstract.
