Women’s Experiences of Stalking in Regina: A Research Study

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 18:33:44 GMT

This research explores the lived experiences of women who have been targets of stalking by former intimate partners in Regina, Saskatchewan. Using narrative interviews, the study centers the voices of women to better understand the emotional, psychological, and systemic impacts of stalking.

Participants described stalking as a constant and escalating form of abuse that often continues after a relationship ends. Behaviours included repeated phone calls, surveillance, unwanted contact, and threats, creating an ongoing sense of fear and loss of safety. Many women shared that the emotional and psychological harm caused by stalking was as severe, or more severe, than previous physical abuse.

The study also highlights the challenges women face when seeking help. While some participants reported positive experiences with police, others encountered barriers within the justice system, including difficulty proving harassment, delays in court processes, and limited consequences for offenders. These challenges often intensified feelings of fear, frustration, and isolation.

Women identified services such as counseling and Family Service Regina’s Domestic Violence Unit as essential in helping them cope, regain a sense of safety, and navigate complex systems.
