"Congratulations on the first year of your excellent and factual Morrisseau blog. It generated a wide range of opinions that added to the Morrisseau knowledge pool, and has done much to advance the general knowledge about Canada's aboriginal art. Your research and dedication to this cause is impressive and has been noted by readers in many parts of the world. Keep up the good work."

"... I must admit that without your excellent research and general perseverance the Morrisseau Story would have not been told in its true form. The abuse you had to suffer for this amazes me and the fact that you continued on this task is commendable. So keep up the good work and try to be more forgiving to the Vadas family. I'm sure Norval would want that."

"Hello Ugo,

Another brilliant article by one whom I consider an eccentric genius. I keep marvelling at the time you must put into the presentation of these exceedingly well researched articles.
 
Keep up the good work.
 
Sincerely,
 
Robert Lavack"
