Our Founder
Blue Line Taxi was founded in 1984 by Anthony Rizzuto Sr., a man always willing to lend a helping hand. Whether it was by donating to local charities or assisting a stranger change a tire, his loyalty, devotion, and generosity were consistently evident. Truly an inspiration, Anthony received his first taxi license in 1958 when he was just 21 years old. At the time, he was working at Stelco; when the company went on strike, Anthony turned to taxi driving to support his family, and didn’t stop there. Showing his concern for the growth and progression of the business, he was successful in his dedicated initiative to convince others within the Hamilton taxi industry to push for, and receive, improved city regulated mechanical standards for taxis. A proud supporter of the taxi industry, an adoring Grandfather and a man who kept his word, Anthony Rizzuto Sr. made a difference and enriched the lives of those around him.
