"At the Prostate Cancer Canada National Conference in Halifax I had the HONOUR of participating in a Laughter Power presentation with Peter Davison. Peter is a motivational speaker who has the rare ability to speak from the heart and tickle your funny bone. In a room of eighty people he gathered us close to him with some personal stories and then helped us drop our inhibitions. Everyone in the room followed his lead and had a great time introducing themselves to strangers amongst noises of heartfelt laughter. Peter is a master motivational speaker in bringing people together with a smile on their face and laughter in their belly."

"Peter Davison received a standing ovation for his “Living Well” closing keynote at our Parkinson’s: Moving Forward conference. His presentation was so very positive and uplifting - a fantastic way to end the conference! Delegates gave Peter one of the highest ratings of all the speakers - and they loved the red noses!! Some of the many comments included: “Excellent person to give us an entirely different viewpoint regarding the handling of our challenge”, “Brilliant mix of heart and soul,” “Very, very entertaining and light hearted. Funny and bang on with his message of living well!” I would highly recommend Peter as a speaker for any conference where participant’s need inspiration to move forward with courage."
- Diane Robinson, CEO, Parkinson Society British Columbia
 

"On our overall conference evaluations Peter Davison scored 115%! How do you score over 100?, because people felt compelled to check “Highly Satisfied” numerous times, and rightly so. Peter’s closing keynote was the perfect wrap up to our conference, and left people feeling energized, motivated, and appreciated. The standing ovation he received, and the smile on delegates faces at the end showed that Peter had hit the mark. I wore my clown nose all the way home to keep the positive feelings flowing. Thanks for being a very special part of one of our best conferences ever!

"Peter Davison brought a unique brand of energy to his Quest for Employee Engagement presentation to our group. He had the audience laughing, cheering and even some shedding a tear of inspiration during his talk. It was a refreshing break from the business topics that our delegates had been hearing."
- Bob Elliott, President, Canadian Printing Industries Association
 

“Peter’s contributions to our conference were highlights of the program. His mid-afternoon laughter energy booster was so much fun and provided a wonderful counterbalance to all the sitting and mental focus involved in professional conferences. The increased energy level in the room was palpable, as was the positive shift in everyone’s mood.

Peter’s heartfelt and moving presentation on the four dimensions of living well with chronic disease was extremely powerful. Through bravely sharing his own journey, interwoven with stories, humour and inspirational quotes, Peter connected with the audience in a very special way. I am sure his words and the emotions they evoked will stay with the healthcare professionals who heard them and influence the way they interact with their patients in the future."
