You've probably heard it repeated every major election year: "If so-and-so gets elected, I'm moving to Canada!"

This year, one Canadian has decided to help opponents of Donald Trump follow-through on the dramatic and often unfulfilled declaration.

CBIfTrumpWins.com is a new website trying to capitalize on the sentiment by getting Americans to move to Cape Breton Island if Donald Trump wins the 2016 presidential election.

"Hi Americans! Donald Trump may become the President of your country!" the site says to welcome new visitors. "If that happens, and you decide to get the hell out of there, might I suggest moving to Cape Breton Island!"

The site went viral Wednesday, WIVB-TV reported. It shows scenic photos of the small Nova Scotia island and tells Americans they can "just hop on a bus to start your new life."

Despite the site's insistence that it is "not a joke," it does appear to be mostly a tongue-in-cheek endeavor by Sydney, N.S., radio host Rob Calabrese, according to CBC News. He put the site together in just a few hours, and it has no official relationship with any Canadian government, tourism or immigration agencies.

"Since we launched ... it's really taken off. I've been contacted a lot by people who appear to be earnestly asking about moving here," Calabrese told CBC. He said he's been contacted by a professor at Cornell University and others "asking genuine questions about things like the immigration process, the economics. It's been taken seriously by some people, which is great and not intended, but I'm going to help them out as best I can."

The site's FAQ includes links to the Canadian government's immigration bureau, job listings in Cape Breton, the island's tourism page and home listings on the island.

It also explains Calabrese's real motivation, which involves Nova Scotia's shrinking population:

Calabrese takes aim at some of Trump's opponents' chief concern about the billionaire businessman, including his plan to build a wall along the border of Mexico.

"The only 'walls' are holding up the roofs of our extremely affordable houses," the site proclaims. "See for yourself, you belong here with us on Cape Breton Island, where health care is free, you know your neighbors and they look out for you, and nobody has a hand gun!"
