Many urban police forces (including the City of Nelson) and some tribal police forces (including the Kitasoo Xaixais Police Service and Stl'atl'imx Tribal Police) are under provincial authority. Complaints about these forces need to go to the Office of the Police Complaints Commissioner (BC); see the Resource List for contact and website information, including an online complaint form. |
