Rendre les transgenres en situation d’itinérance invisibles
la préfiguration de l’itinérance chez les personnes cisgenres par le recensement des sans-abri
Mots-clés :
recensement, itinérance, recensement des sans-abri, recherche quantitative, transRésumé
Les municipalités canadiennes recensent régulièrement les populations de sans-abri en vue d’orienter leurs politiques et services. S’appuyant sur 165 rapports municipaux canadiens-anglais de recensement des sans-abri, cet article examine la façon dont on définit au sens large les personnes transgenres, bispirituelles et non binaires (T2SNB), ainsi que le sexe et le genre. Dans la méthodologie et les textes de recensement et de rapport, on préfigure l’itinérance comme étant cisgenre. Pour les recensements subséquents, les services destinés aux itinérants, comprenant les services nouveaux et remaniés en fonction des recensements précédents, servent à retrouver les personnes itinérantes à dénombrer, ce qui accentue la notion et la préfiguration de l’itinérance chez les personnes cisgenres. Dans plusieurs municipalités, ces rapports perpétuent ouvertement et subtilement le modèle binaire du genre. Le fait de rendre invisibles les personnes T2SNB et de les représenter de manière inexacte peut avoir des conséquences importantes qui peuvent se répercuter sur les services et les logements disponibles.
