Ryerson University student killed in fatal downtown shooting remembered as passionate writer and good friend | CTV News
''The fatal shooting of a 20-year-old Ryerson student in downtown Toronto has left an entire school community in shock and grieving.

Toronto Police have identified the victim as Olivier Dundas, a journalism student at Ryerson University.

“He was such a good person. I don’t know why anyone would do what they did,” Curtis Martin who first met Dundas in his first year of university, told CTV News Toronto.

Martin said Dundas was a founding member of Over The Line, a digital sports publication run by students, and is being remembered as a good writer, but more importantly, a good friend.

“I want him remembered as a guy who could be serious and really was passionate about what he did, but at the same time if someone was down, he was there giving us a good laugh,” he said.''
