Always Respected and Respectful
He may be irreverently satirical, but he somehow manages never to offend the source of his comedy. He receives rave reviews from politicians and was even asked to speak at a First Minister's meeting in Whistler, B.C. In 1989 he was invited to speak at Ed Broadbent's tribute dinner and Don Cherry, one of his better know impersonations, has this to say about Bob Robertson:
"The most innovative and creative Canadian talent in comedy today."
Nothing But Standing Ovations
Throughout his 30-45 minute speech, he treats his audience like friends and colleagues and will move smoothly from one character to another, covering the full spectrum of political and social issues your audience needs to laugh about. His topic is always politics, but he's never stale - every organization has one or many levels of government to deal with. And Bob knows who they are.
