Saskatchewan COPP groups have established the Saskatchewan Citizens On Patrol Association (SCOPA), similar to that which exists in Alberta and Nova Scotia. We’re a non-profit association which exists to provide training, support & resources for Saskatchewan COPP groups as well act as an advocate for COPP groups. 

Currently COPP groups are active in The Battlefords, Candle Lake, Wilkie, Kindersley, the Lakeland area, Yorkton, Lloydminster, Tisdale, Moose Jaw, Nipawin, Regina and Crooked Lake. The community of Alida has formed the regional SESask COPP group which includes the communities of Alameda, Gainsborough, Oxbow and Glen Ewen. Groups are in the establishment phase in Assiniboia, Moosomin, Loon Lake, Saskatoon and Shaunavon. Other communities have reached out to SCOPA liaison Sgt. James Flynn expressing interest in beginning local COPP groups.

Beyond merely patrolling, COPP groups also operate activities such as home checks during occupant absences, property security camera registries, Child Find services at community fairs and safe ride home programs.

For further information about COPP in Saskatchewan, including establishing a group in your community or suggestions on how to manage a current group please email us at info@saskcopa.ca or james.flynn@rcmp-grc.gc.ca. If your community operates a COPP program or would like to start a program, we’d love to connect with you, please reach out to either of the email addresses.

Note our AGM & Seminar will be held in the fall of 2025. We’ll soon be accepting memberships from new and existing COPP groups from across Saskatchewan.
