Making a Report

Any citizen who witnesses a situation which he or she considers a threat to the integrity or safety of an individual or a group of individuals, or who believes that reprisals might be taken against them, may report the situation to the Québec Ombudsman.

The report may be made orally (418-643-2688 / 514-873-2032 / 1-800-463-5070) or in writing.

It must contain the following information:

A description of the facts, events, or situation
Information identifying the user or group of users affected
The name of the institution in question
The name(s) and contact information of the person or group of persons filing the report and requesting an intervention
The date of the report

The Québec Ombudsman may decide not to intervene after assessing the facts or events brought to its attention.
