"Seriously, I could not be more impressed with this guy! I did not want to end this ZOOM recording because it was SO MUCH FUN! Anthony Frisina is a speaker, author, advocate for people who are differently abled, works at Mohawk College and is a community leader. If we do decide to do a comedy tour together, we shall call it "the first stand up/ sit down duo". This guy had me laughing so much! It was my longest episode so far! (2 hours long!)Gosh, I hope the audience loves it as much as we do! With love, laughter and inspiration"

“I have known Anthony Frisina since his days as a spokesperson for the Hamilton CYO’s programs. Anthony has always stood for inclusion and valuing people of all abilities. His courageous foray into municipal politics must be encouraged and congratulated. He would be a fearless advocate for the entire community.”

"Hey I heard you were at the Ron Joyce Children's Health Centre tonight. My daughter went to the cheer squad and was so excited. She's like Anthony was there and did you know he has a TV show called Above and Beyond on cable 14. Just thought I would let you know what you have shown my daughter. That despite her disability, she can still go on with life. She was so excited that you were there"

“Time for change. Where I live, the community is calling for fresh faces at the table. Hamilton’s Ward 8 should welcome Anthony Frisina's inclusive voice. He is a thoughtful & compassionate leader. You won’t be disappointed. I’ve worked with him for the last 5 years. He is a class act.”

"20 years ago we gave a talk together on patient advocacy, your words started an evolution, I vowed to find you and thank you, I saw you on Above & Beyond - TV on Cable 14 Hamilton and today we bumped into each other, and so it begins....a patient, inclusive care revolution"

“Hi Mr. Frisina, I was just reading a CBC article about the woeful ODSP situation. I wanted to reach out and thank you for your hard work advocating for all those in this situation. If there’s anything I can do on some level to help I’d be happy to do so.”
