As Donald Trump emerged as the winner of the American presidential campaign Tuesday night, 100,000 people in the Unites States visited Canada's immigration website, contributing to a crash.

Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada confirmed that visitors from the U.S. made up half the traffic on its website when it "started to experience difficulties" around 11 p.m. on Nov. 8. The usual proportion of visitors from the U.S. ranges from 8.8 to 11.6 per cent.

In total, 200,000 users were on the website when it crashed, compared to 17,000 users at the same time the previous week.

    And that's exactly happening in the US. Concentration camps filled with Jews, African Americans, LGBTs, Muslim Americans, elderly, Asian Americans and Hispanic Americans all getting gassed.

    Took AH over half a decade to get into third gear. Just a matter of waiting.

    There's gonna be a camp for the calculating women who refuse to sign the prenuptial agreement. Also the women who will openly and quickly sign a prenuptial agreement in order to make a quick hit and take the money given to them.

    Another camp is for the ones with extraordinarily bad breast jobs and the ones with pancake tits. Especially the ones who had a breast reduction, that's gonna be the highest priority of all. Those massive plastic surgeries that didn’t work, we'll make those go away.

    And there will be a camp for that fat pig, Rosie O'Donnell. We're all a little chubby but Rosie's just worse than most of us. But it's not the chubbiness. Rosie is a very unattractive person, both inside and out.
