GEOADMIN reflects...
The Canadian Geographer editorial 2012, 56(4) doesn't make any sense to me!
It talks about "cookies at every step", so similar to the Hansel and Gretel Grimm's fairy tale!
Then it rambled on for 7 paragraphs, suddenly introducing new viewpoints and dialogue journal sections.
The new op-ed sections are refereed... I guess for the perception it's a journal and not a magazine!
That could now make opinions count as facts and propagate a groupthink agenda!
Did anyone notice? The Canadian Geographer and the ACME e-journal seem to be so similar in focus!
Only time will tell how authors, SSHRC and Wiley-Blackwell will react to these journal shifts!
Notes:
The Canadian Geographer - Journal of the CAG society.
SSHRC - Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada.
Wiley-Blackwell - Academic publisher.
ACME Journal - An international e-journal of critical geographies.

I was a bit stumped too. It was like the main idea came as an afterthought to cycling.
