Description

With the recent additions of gender identity and gender expression to the Canadian Human Rights Act and the Criminal Code as well as some sources of administrative data changing from sex to gender, it is necessary to distinguish the concepts of sex and gender within the National Statistical System. In response, Statistics Canada has released a revised variable, 'sex of person', a new variable, 'gender of person' and their related classifications.
