Hate Crimes Online Report

Hate Crimes, Non-Criminal Hate Incidents, and Specific Hate Crime Violations, including Hate Propaganda Offences, are motivated solely or in part because of the suspect's hate, bias, or prejudice against another person based on the victim's colour, race, religion, national or ethnic origin, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression or mental or physical disability.

Victims of hate motivated offences are often reluctant to report to police, for a variety of reasons, including fear of retaliation, language or cultural barriers, or a perception of the importance of an incident. However, it is crucial to the safety of all citizens that all incidents of hate be reported and investigated, in order to send a strong message that hate will not be tolerated in Saskatoon communities.

Due to limitations of the Online Reporting system, some offences must be reported in person or by phone.

In these cases reports can be taken:

• In person at the SPS Service Centre (open from 8:00am - 5:00pm).
• An officer can be dispatched to take the report in person by calling 306-975-8300.
• Anonymous tips can be submitted by calling Crime Stoppers toll-free at 1-800-222-8477 or at saskatooncrimestoppers.com

If you are in danger and/or the crime is in progress, please call 911.

Please note the criteria for filing an online report as there are certain circumstances that may require your report to be made in person.
