After discussing the normative particularities of torture as a hybrid public-private wrong, the author theories on the possibility and desirability of expanding the classical categories of intentional torts to accommodate a new nominate tort of torture. Following the current taxonomy of Canadian tort law, it is suggested that torture could coherently be conceived as a distinct form of trespass against the person or, alternatively, as an especially violent form of misfeasance in public office.French Abstract Cet article propose la reconnaissance d'une nouvelle cause d'action en responsabiliteacute; deacute;lictuelle pour les actes de torture tels qu'ils sont deacute;finis en droit international. Apregrave;s avoir discuteacute; des particulariteacute;s normatives de la torture en tant que tort hybride, soit public et priveacute;, l'auteur avance des theacute;ories sur la possibiliteacute; et l'opportuniteacute; d'eacute;largir les cateacute;gories classiques des deacute;lits intentionnels pour accueillir un nouveau deacute;lit de torture. Agrave; la suite de la taxonomie actuelle du droit canadien de la responsabiliteacute; deacute;lictuelle, il est suggeacute;reacute; que la torture puisse ecirc;tre conccedil;ue de maniegrave;re coheacute;rente comme une forme distincte d'intrusion contre la personne ou, subsidiairement, comme une forme particuliegrave;rement violente d'abus dans les fonctions publiques.
