"Emotional Support Canadian" began trending on Twitter on Tuesday evening as election day was drawing to a close. 

American users called out to Canadians, asking for their support during these trying times.

Canadians began to offer their services, free of charge.

One user wrote, "Anyone need an emotional support canadian? Standing by."

"Emotional support Canadian, reporting for duty," wrote another.

Earlier today, "As a Canadian" was trending on Twitter and Canadians were sharing their two cents when it came to the election.

Many Americans have gone so far as to say they're moving to Canada if the election doesn't go their way.
