“Despite the innocent intentions influencing my decision to use this particular image, I have come to recognize the negative implications of adding the .GIF image within this given context,” he said. “By using this particular image of President Obama, I unknowingly perpetuated this living legacy and subsequently allowed a medium of [Student Society of McGill University] communication to become the site of a microaggression; for this, I am deeply sorry.”

Read that again. This isn't an apology at all. LOL. There is no victim to apologize to. There is no real stated offense. It was written so well that only the most intellectual would find that it was a coerced statement to satisfy the PC. Still, tragically, it does give the ridiculous PC cult a victory.

Yes, it was an excellent non-apology apology. Indeed, it was smugly satirical.
