An 11-year-old Canadian boy is the toast of Twitter today as athletes, actors and politicians from across the country (and beyond) send him public birthday wishes.

Jason Foster of Corner Brook, N.L., took to the social media platform on Saturday night with a simple plea for his son, who was ghosted by everyone at his 11th birthday party.

"My son Kade had his 11th birthday party last night. None of his invited friends came. That hurt," wrote Foster, linking to a photo of young Kade standing behind an untouched Toronto Maple Leafs cake.

"I'm asking my Twitter friends to show him some love today. If you have a minute, please send him a birthday wish."

Foster tagged Toronto Maple Leafs stars Mitch Marner and John Tavares in the tweet, as well as the team's official handle.

Just over six hours later, both Marner and Tavares responded enthusiastically, hinting at a "surprise gift" that was being sent to young Kade.

"Happy 11th Birthday Kade! All your friends on the team look forward to celebrating with you," wrote 29-year-old Tavares, who was just recently named the NHL team's new captain. "I'm hearing it's going to be quite the surprise."

"Wanted to wish my friend Kade a Happy 11th Birthday!" tweeted Marner similarly. "Your friends from the Maple Leafs have a surprise gift coming your way!"

Johnny T, you and the #Leafs are the best! Kade will get treated to a birthday gift he will never forget! What a Class Act organization, the Leafs! 👍👍👍

"Happy 11th birthday, Kade!" wrote Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in response to the post.

"Kade I don't play hockey at all but Happy Birthday man!" responded American actor Ben Stiller.

By Monday morning, Foster's original tweet had been liked more than 125,000 times.
