People Lost Their Minds When These Popular Websites Went Down

Excited Canadians Crashed Their Government’s Census Website

Canada’s enthusiasm to complete its 2016 census actually caused the government website to go offline. The site just couldn’t handle the heavy traffic. Who knew filling out a census survey could be so exciting? Luckily, the crash only lasted for about 45 minutes.

Canadians have crashed the census page. Canada: YOU ARE A PACK OF DANG NERDS

Seriously: What kind of nation gets so excited to fill out a census, it breaks the website? What is wrong with us? (the answer is nothing)

Never been so excited to fill out a census; and I get the feeling a lot of people feel the same. Page keeps crashing. #Census2016 #GoodData
