My name is Waubgeshig Isaac Rice.
I am a broadcast journalist and a writer.
I live in Ottawa.
I grew up in a beautiful place called Wasauksing.
My dad is Ojibway and my mom is Canadian.
I am proud of my background.
I speak German better than I speak Ojibway.
Music is the second most important thing in my life.
I love my family and friends and am blessed to have so many great people in my life.
I only watch news, sports, and current affairs on TV.
I like movies that make you stay in your seat long after the credits are done rolling.
I like books that make you re-read the last 20 pages right after you finish.
My favourite teams are the Leafs, Raptors, Blue Jays, and Bills.
I appreciate that you’ve visited.
Miigwetch.

Hi Waub:
Like Linda (Sept.20,2011) we too have missed you from the National broadcasting from Winnipeg. It was good visiting with your Grandma last summer and to hear about you living in Ottawa and writing a book.
We are so happy to see that the book is finished and that you are touring & doing readings. This is all such good news. You are a great journalist and we are looking forward to reading “Midnight Sweatlodge”.
Larry & I wish you well in your work and in your life, Waub.
We feel blessed that our paths crossed again while you were in Winnipeg.
All the best, Lois

Hi Waubgeshig:
Do you know where I can buy your book in Ottawa? Doesn’t look like there are any in stock at Chapters. I know I can order online but I was hoping to get my hands on a copy early this week.
Kindest regards,
Andrea

Hi Waub.
I hope it is ok to comment here. I was not sure how else to get in touch with you. I just wanted to say I say the video you put together in regards to our situation at the house. It is really well done and I want to say thank you. We are getting phone calls and emails from friends that watched it this evening.
Thank you again and again!!!!
Kevin
