Outdoor Canada wins three CSME awards
Outdoor Canada won three honours at the Canadian Society of Magazine Editors (CSME) Awards at the MagNet conference in Toronto June 8.
Outdoor Canada was named best for mid-size consumer magazine, display writing (Jim Cormier Award) and editor of the year. Outdoor's editor Patrick Walsh fought back tears accepting the Jim Cormier honour. "Jim was a friend of mine, in a lot of ways this means more than magazine of the year," he said.
