Why has StatCan kept census data on transgender children secret?


The 2021 census was the first in Canada to collect information on sex at birth as well as gender, how the individual identifies. According to the data, 100,815 people, or 0.33 per cent of the population aged 15 and older, identified as transgender or non-binary. The proportion was highest (0.79 per cent) for Gen Z (those born roughly between 1997 and 2012).
