Manche Autos sind auf Anhieb erfolgreich. Andere stolpern jahrelang über Konstruktionsfehler, Leistungsversagen und endlose Reboots, bevor sie sich den Respekt der Fahrer verdienen. Jede Marke hat dieses eine Modell, das viel zu lange gebraucht hat, um seinen Platz zu finden, aber alles verändert hat, als es ihn gefunden hat. Schnallen Sie sich an, wir werden 20 Autos unter die Lupe nehmen, die beweisen, dass es manchmal sehr lange dauert, bis man sein Ziel erreicht.

Dans son premier message sur le sujet, M. Trump a écrit que « la Fondation Ronald Reagan vient d’annoncer que le Canada a utilisé frauduleusement une publicité, qui est FAUSSE, mettant en scène Ronald Reagan s’exprimant de manière négative sur les tarifs douaniers »

Il a poursuivi en affirmant que « la publicité était de 75 000 000$ » et que les fonctionnaires canadiens » n’ont fait cela que pour interférer avec la décision de la Cour suprême des États-Unis et d’autres tribunaux. »

Après avoir annoncé ses droits de douane dits « du jour de la libération » le 1er avril 2025, de nouvelles taxes à l’importation considérables justifiées par la loi IEEPA et devant entrer en vigueur le 2 avril, Donald Trump a dû faire face à des contestations juridiques immédiates de la part d’entreprises et de plusieurs États américains.
L’affaire a été portée devant la Cour suprême des États-Unis après que des juridictions inférieures ont jugé les droits de douane illégaux, ce qui a incité l’administration à faire appel.

Le « comportement flagrant » du Canada
Dans sa publication Truth Social, M. Trump a défendu sa politique commerciale, insistant sur le fait que « les tarifs sont très importants pour la sécurité nationale et l’économie des États-Unis »
M. Trump a conclu son billet en déclarant que, compte tenu de ce qu’il a appelé le « comportement flagrant » du Canada:
« TOUTES LES NÉGOCIATIONS COMMERCIALES AVEC LE CANADA SONT PAR LA PRÉSENTE TERMINÉES. »

Manifestement irrité par l’attaque contre ses droits de douane, Donald Trump a continué avec une série de messages en majuscules sur Truth Social pour défendre sa politique commerciale et accuser le Canada de tricherie:
« LES ÉTATS-UNIS SONT DE NOUVEAU RICHES, PUISSANTS ET EN SÉCURITÉ NATIONALE, TOUT ÇA À CAUSE DES TARIFS. »
« LE CANADA A TRICHÉ ET S’EST FAIT PRENDRE », ajoute-t-il.
M. Trump a également affirmé que « le marché boursier est plus fort que jamais grâce aux tarifs » et que Ronald Reagan « aimait les tarifs pour notre pays et sa sécurité nationale. »

Mark Carney signale le pivot vers l’Asie
Le premier ministre canadien Mark Carney a réagi à la décision de Trump de mettre fin aux négociations commerciales en reconnaissant le changement de politique des États-Unis, déclarant:
« Nous ne pouvons pas contrôler la politique commerciale des États-Unis. »

Il a ajouté : « Nous reconnaissons qu’elle a fondamentalement changé par rapport à la politique des années 1980, 1990 et 2000, et que les États-Unis imposent des droits de douane à tous leurs partenaires commerciaux. »
Mark Carney a souligné l’objectif du Canada de « développer de nouveaux partenariats, y compris avec les géants économiques de l’Asie »
Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner… what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"
Le buzz autour d’Ivan Demidov ne fait que grandir, depuis qu’il a été sélectionné par le Canadien de Montréal au premier tour du repêchage de 2024.
Une nouvelle sensation débarque à Montréal
Avec son talent unique et sa personnalité attachante, son nom fait vendre, notamment au niveau des marchandises, mais également au point de vue publicitaire.
La franchise Ashton a sauté sur l’occasion, en vue de l’ouverture d’une nouvelle succursale dans le Grand Montréal, précisément du côté de Mirabel.
«L’arrivée d’un nouveau Ashton dans le Grand Montréal, ça méritait bien une collaboration avec une nouvelle sensation montréalaise…», a annoncé Ashton, plus tôt cette semaine.
Les restaurants Ashton ont profité de cette opportunité marketing pour frapper un grand coup en annonçant l’arrivée de Demidov comme leur nouvelle recrue vedette.
L’entreprise a su transformer l’actualité sportive en un coup de maître publicitaire, en liant habilement son image à celle du célèbre joueur.
«Cette année, une nouvelle sensation débarque à Montréal», lance le narrateur, en ouverture de pub.
Il ajoute ceci: «Inoubliable. Inarrêtable. L’incontournable…»
«Moi?», demande Ivan Demidov, avec son air interrogatif et une poutine à la main.
«Ben non, Ivan! Ashton. La vraie poutine des Québécois depuis 1969!»
«Ashton x Ivan Demidov. Quand deux sensations se rencontrent: une sur la glace et l’autre dans l’assiette. FRAIS. VRAI», écrit Ashton sur les réseaux sociaux.
Cette collaboration symbolise à la fois l’audace et l’humour typiques de la marque, tout en renforçant sa présence auprès du grand public.
Habitué aux fortes collaborations
Au fil des ans, Ashton s’est régulièrement associé à des sportifs de renom et des personnalités publiques, afin de promouvoir sa marque, notamment des athlètes de la région de Québec.
Ici, une collaboration avec Thomas Chabot, défenseur étoile des Sénateurs d’Ottawa:
«Thomas Chabot qui commande du Ashton pour son équipe: c’est FRAIS.»
Fondée à Québec dans les années 1960, la chaîne a su préserver un esprit local et authentique tout en développant une forte reconnaissance provinciale. Son impact réside dans la valorisation du terroir québécois et dans la promotion d’un produit devenu symbole national.
En misant sur des campagnes publicitaires audacieuses et un ton humoristique, Ashton a su créer un lien affectif avec sa clientèle. Aujourd’hui, la marque incarne une réussite typiquement québécoise, mêlant tradition, fierté et modernité dans le secteur de la restauration rapide.
Est-ce que Ashton possède la meilleure poutine au Québec, selon vous?
In a long Truth Social outburst, the president declared the end of all trade talks with Canada, accusing Ontario’s government of funding a «fake» U.S. ad using Ronald Reagan’s voice to criticize Trump’s tariffs.

An advertisement featuring Ronald Reagan
In his first post on the matter, Trump wrote that «the Ronald Reagan Foundation has just announced that Canada has fraudulently used an advertisement, which is FAKE, featuring Ronald Reagan speaking negatively about Tariffs.»
«CANADA CHEATED AND GOT CAUGHT!!!»
-Donald Trump
He continued, alleging that «the ad was for $75,000,000» and that Canadian officials «only did this to interfere with the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court, and other courts.»

After announcing his so-called «Liberation Day» tariffs on April 1, 2025, sweeping new import taxes justified under the IEEPA and set to take effect on April 2, Trump faced immediate legal challenges from businesses and several U.S. states. The case reached the U.S. Supreme Court after lower courts struck down the tariffs as unlawful, prompting the administration to appeal.

Canada’s «egregious behavior»
In his Truth Social publication, Trump defended his trade policy, insisting that «TARIFFS ARE VERY IMPORTANT TO THE NATIONAL SECURITY, AND ECONOMY, OF THE U.S.A.»
Trump concluded the post by declaring that, based on what he called Canada’s «egregious behavior»:
«ALL TRADE NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ARE HEREBY TERMINATED.»

Clearly stung by the attack on his tariffs, Trump followed up with a series of all-caps posts on Truth Social defending his trade policy and accusing Canada of cheating, writing «THE UNITED STATES IS WEALTHY, POWERFUL, AND NATIONALLY SECURE AGAIN, ALL BECAUSE OF TARIFFS!» and «CANADA CHEATED AND GOT CAUGHT!!!»
Trump also claimed that «THE STOCK MARKET IS STRONGER THAN EVER BEFORE BECAUSE OF TARIFFS!» and that Reagan «LOVED TARIFFS FOR OUR COUNTRY, AND ITS NATIONAL SECURITY.»

«We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, and it’s a situation where the U.S. has tariffs against every trading partner.»

He added, «We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, and it’s a situation where the U.S. has tariffs against every trading partner.»

After weeks in which Moscow had hoped to secure a second Trump–Putin summit, seen by the Kremlin as a chance to influence Washington, Trump’s sudden cancellation and his decision to sanction two of Russia’s largest oil companies, described as the «heart of Russia’s economy», sparked fury.
Russia reacts with outrage after the U.S. sanctioned its two largest oil companies, the first economic punishments slapped on Moscow by President Trump during his second term.
Russian officials accused him of taking a «path of war» with Moscow.
«The USA is our adversary, and their loquacious ‘peacemaker’ has now fully taken up the path of war with Russia.»

The harsh reaction from Russia came from Dmitry Medvedev, the deputy chairman of the Security Council and former president of Russia.
In a social media post, Medvedev declared that «The USA is our adversary» and, mocking Trump as «their loquacious “peacemaker”», added that the United States «has now fully taken up the path of war with Russia».
Getty Images
Medvedev use of the phrase «their loquacious ‘peacemaker’» was a pointed jab at Trump, mocking his constant self-promotion as a peacemaker and master dealmaker.
An immediate ceasefire
After weeks of being pressed on when he would act on his threat to sanction Russia if Putin proved insincere in his peace talks, Trump has finally done so. He is now calling on Putin to «agree to an immediate ceasefire» as Russian attacks on Ukrainian cities continue.

Trump’s sudden reversal in recent weeks followed months of leniency toward Russia and repeated claims that Ukraine was to blame for the war — a stance that allowed Putin to seize significant territory and gain momentum.
Trump later admitted he had been misled by Putin and expressed disappointment, though despite repeatedly vowing to impose sanctions, he took no action, enabling Russia’s continued advances.

During his meeting last week with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House, Trump discussed a potential tunnel between Russia and Alaska, a topic Zelensky was «not happy about», and mentioned a possible second meeting with Putin, while appearing to reject Zelensky’s request for U.S. Tomahawk missiles.
«The USA is our adversary»
-Dmitry Medvedev
But Trump suddenly canceled the planned second meeting with Moscow, visibly frustrated by Russia’s lack of progress in his peace initiative, saying he «didn’t feel like we were going to get to the place we have to get.»
«We waited for this. God bless, it will work»

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said in a statement, according to CNN, that «Treasury is prepared to take further action if necessary to support President Trump’s effort» to end the war in Ukraine.
«We canceled the meeting with President Putin. It just didn’t feel right to me. It didn’t feel like we were going to get to the place we have to get. So I canceled it, but we’ll do it in the future,» explained Trump to journalists at the White House.

According to CBS News, Zelensky, for his part, expressed relief at the announcement of U.S. sanctions against Russia, saying «We waited for this. God bless, it will work» and calling the move «very important.»
Speaking from Brussels, where he is meeting European leaders to secure further military aid and coordination, the Ukrainian president reiterated that only sanctions could bring Moscow to the negotiating table.

Best-selling author Michael Wolff has filed a lawsuit against Melania Trump, citing «assault on free speech» after she allegedly threatened to sue him for 1 billion dollars over claims he made linking her to disgraced financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Author Michael Wolff sues Melania Trump after she threatens Epstein suit
«To be perfectly honest, I’d like nothing better than to get Donald Trump and Melania Trump under oath, in front of a court reporter, and actually find out all of the details of their relationship with Epstein,»

Wolff maintains that his reporting is protected by the First Amendment.
Epstein, Trump and the interviews that started it all
In a video posted on social media, author Michael Wolff said he has «written four books about Donald Trump» and that, before Jeffrey Epstein’s death, he had «extensively interviewed» the financier, including about his ties to Trump.

«They are filed or threatened anyway to intimidate people from talking about this exact subject.»
Wolff added that he has «spoken publicly about aspects of those interviews, including the things Epstein said about his relationship with both Donald Trump and Melania Trump.»

Melania’s billion-dollar threat
Wolff said that «several days ago» he was notified by lawyers representing Melania Trump that they intend to sue him for one billion dollars over his public statements. He added that «they’ve threatened and sued other people for related statements about Melania Trump’s relationship with Epstein.»
Describing such actions as «SLAPP suits»—strategic lawsuits against public participation—Wolff said these cases «may have no hope whatsoever of proving defamation, but they are filed or threatened anyway to intimidate people from talking about this exact subject.»

«A very fruitful way to finally open this dark curtain and find out what Donald Trump, Melania Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were doing together.»
Turning the tables on the Trumps
Wolff went on to say that he «can’t live like that,» referring to what he described as intimidation through legal threats.

«To be perfectly honest, I’d like nothing better than to get Donald Trump and Melania Trump under oath, in front of a court reporter, and actually find out all of the details of their relationship with Epstein,» he said.
Declaring that he was «turning the tables on the Trumps and refusing to acquiesce,» Wolff added that his lawyers had filed a motion in a New York court seeking a declaratory judgment — giving them subpoena power to call witnesses and determine «exactly what the relationship between Epstein and the Trumps was.»

«I can’t live like that.»
-Michael Wolff
A costly but revealing battle
Wolff concluded his video by acknowledging that the legal battle ahead «is going to be an expensive effort,» saying he plans to seek public support to help fund it.

He added that he believes the case could become «a very fruitful way to finally open this dark curtain and find out what Donald Trump, Melania Trump and Jeffrey Epstein were doing together.»
