The Canadian government’s immigration website crashed on Tuesday night after it was obvious that billionaire Republican, Donald Trump was going to win the white house ticket.

Needless to say, the scramble for Canadian visa may not be unconnected with the anti-foreigner stance touted by Trump during his campaign.

Many American celebrities also publicly expressed that they will leave the country for Canada if Trump wins, and it seems this is likely to happen with the overload on the Canandian Immigration website.

Meanwhile the Citizenship and Immigration Canada Twitter page is yet to acknowledge the crash but the immigration website has crashed showing a ‘500 – Internal server error’ message.

Major media outlets, including Fortune magazine and USA Today recently published articles explaining how Americans could emigrate to Canada. Earlier this year, the Canadian town of Cape Breton launched a public-relations effort appealing to U.S. citizens who may wish to move north if Trump wins.
