The Yukon Police Council (YPC) acts as a liaison between Yukon citizens, the Department of Justice and “M” Division of the RCMP. The Council relies on feedback from Yukoners to the Minister of Justice when policing priorities are being drafted. YPC is a citizen based council established from the recommendations from Sharing Common Ground, the final report of the Review of Yukon’s Police Force 2010.

The Yukon Police Council’s main roles are to: 

  • ensure that a broad representation of Yukon citizens have input into the Territorial Police Service objectives, priorities and goals established by the Minister of Justice.
  • provide advice that the Minister of Justice may consider when establishing policing objectives, priorities and goals pursuant to the Territorial Police Services Agreement.
  • increase the flow of information between citizens, the Department of Justice and “M” Division of the RCMP.

The 2017 council members are:
Deputy Minister of Justice Lesley McCullough - Chair, Elodie Dulac, Maureen Johnstone, Tracy MacPherson, Simon Nagano, Rob Schneider, Melaina Sheldon
