Balancing confidentiality and gender data dissemination
To maintain the balance between disseminating as much gender-based data as possible and preserving confidentiality, some information from the 2021 Census is released at higher levels of geography using a three-category gender variable with the following categories:
- men (cisgender and transgender)
- women (cisgender and transgender)
- non-binary persons.
Or using a five-category classification of cisgender, transgender and non-binary populations. This is a derived variable that uses both three-category gender and sex at birth:
- cisgender men
- cisgender women
- transgender men
- transgender women
- non-binary persons.
Given that the non-binary population is small, when necessary, a statistical method producing a two-category gender variable is applied to prevent disclosure of identifiable data for lower levels of geography.
Consequently, in these cases, information will be disseminated using the following categories:
- men+
- women+.
Individuals in the "non-binary persons" category are distributed in the other two gender categories and are denoted by the "+" symbol.
