ANTHONY LUE BIOGRAPHY
Growing up in Pickering, Ontario, Anthony Lue knew that he was destined for greatness! Having found a love for sports and speed early on in his childhood only set him up for a rollercoaster of a ride. By the time he was 14 years old, it was evident that his talent would place him as one of the top hurdlers and baseball players for his age in the nation.
As life would have it, the vision was blurred and the path to greatness was no more. The downturn started and the decision-making became horrific. Getting back on track and never giving up is something Anthony Lue has always been good at and when he landed his automotive apprenticeship, things seemed to be looking up.
Eleven months in at his apprenticeship, with knowledge being gained on a daily, life was only getting better until that fateful day of September 30, 2009. After moving some scrap vehicles to the scrap yard down the street, the unthinkable happened to Anthony. As he exited the weigh-in scale the crane with a 6ft wide magnet and 4ft. long claws came crashing down on the car crushing Anthony inside.
By the grace of God, Anthony was pulled from the wreckage by firefighters and airlifted to Toronto’s #1 trauma center Sunnybrook Hospital. When the dust settled and surgery was over, Anthony Lue was told that he was now a paraplegic and would never be able to walk or regain the use of his legs ever again. Immediately Anthony Lue knew how blessed he was simply just being alive and that is when he made the conscious decision to forgive the crane operator and put the accident behind him. His new goal on a daily basis is to figure out how he can move forward in life inspiring everyone he meets.
Today. Anthony Lue speaks at a variety of schools, corporate events, television, and on radio as well as being an ambassador for two of Canada’s largest accessibility trade shows, The People in Motion show and the Abilities Expo. Anthony Lue hasn’t stopped moving since the accident and continues to evolve, helping make this world a more accessible place with his accessibility consultant certification through the Rick Hansen Foundation.
Recently Anthony Lue worked as the Accessibility Chair for the 2019 Parasport games and organizations such as Human Space, The Ontario Building Code Association, Urban Ability Access Solutions, and more. Anthony is also pursuing his lifelong Olympic dream as a 2021 Tokyo Paralympic hopeful in the sport of handcycling. Anthony Lue shares with his audiences how they too can persevere and succeed against all odds.
