Note: Submitting multiple complaints about the same event will limit the PCC's ability to respond in a timely manner, and it may be deemed an abuse of the complaint process.
Contact the PCC if your complaint:
- has been previously filed with the PCC; or
- it is related to an active investigation or criminal court proceeding.
To ensure that the best possible service is provided to you, it is in everyone's best interest that you make your complaint as soon as possible. Normally, public complaints will not be accepted after 12 months from the date of the incident.
To make a complaint about a municipal police service or one of its members, complete the online form below. Complaints cannot be submitted by phone.

You can also make a complaint by:
- printing, filling out and mailing the manual form to the PCC; or
- visiting a local PCC office to request and fill out the form in person.
Note: the PCC only investigates complaints against Saskatchewan municipal police services and special constables sworn under part 4 of The Police Act, 1990. It does not investigate complaints against businesses, members of the public, municipal governments (or their employees), or any other organizations in the province.
The PCC also does not have the authority to address matters about the conduct of members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP).
Complaints about the RCMP can be made to:
