Leo Messi collected the award recognizing him as the player with the most titles in the history of soccer from Juan Ignacio Gallardo, director of MARCA, and Jorge Mas, owner of Inter Miami. The Argentine star expressed his gratitude for the award.

“We already have a long-standing relationship with MARCA. They were very good to choose an Argentine and a Catalan. They are my two homes. It’s where I’m happy. But today we are also in a place where we are very happy. Without knowing me, they were very right.”

The Chase Stadium was the venue for the award ceremony. Numerous personalities gathered to honor Messi as the champion of champions: 46 collective titles and 56 individual titles adorn an almost unattainable list of honors.

Do you remember your first title as a kid?

“I saw pictures of my first trophy as a kid, but I don’t remember it. Surely, like some of my children, I wasn’t aware of everything that was to come. I enjoyed soccer from a very young age. It’s my passion.

Do you count titles?

“I don’t count titles. Mostly the individual ones. It was spectacular to see the video. A lot of things go through my head. We’ve also had some difficult moments. Not everything is pretty. The disappointments helped me to grow”.

Argentina National Team

“I love playing soccer. I was recently in a packed Monumental with Argentina, chanting my name and that of my teammates. I’ve been through a lot of bad times with Argentina and I’m grateful for the moment I’m living now.”

“I’m taking advantage of it because time is running out. The love I have for this sport is very great. We came here to make this club bigger, I didn’t come here to retire. We are lucky to win so many titles.”

Messi’s thanks

“Thank you very much for this recognition, both the work and the drawing. I know it was with great affection because of what they told me and we are going to find a little place for it because it deserves it”.

Next goal or dream?

“I was able to fulfill all my dreams and achieved many more than I dreamed of as a kid. God gave it to me. I was able to achieve the biggest dream of a player, which is a World Cup. I won many titles in the club of my life, which is Barcelona. I also won in Paris and now with Inter. I’m fighting to continue to achieve many more things”.

World Cup 2026?

“Things pass by and I don’t get ahead of myself. I try to enjoy day by day. When the time comes we’ll see, I don’t like to accelerate times. I hope I can continue to perform at this level to feel good and be happy. That’s more important to me than whether I’m going to make it or not.

Thiago, Mateo and Ciro’s criticism…

“Our children will reproach me for not being here. Now they understand everything. I love what I do. I enjoy being on the field. The other day I enjoyed the Monumental chanting my name and that’s the best.”

“I have fought hard for this moment to come and I enjoy it more than ever. When the end is near… you value many more things. Coming here was not a retirement. It was to make a very new club great. We are close to continuing to win titles.”

### Canada Shuts Down Tesla and U.S. Auto Industry—Elon Musk’s 9-Word Response Leaves the World Stunned In a **bold and unexpected move**, Canada has made a shocking decision to **shut down Tesla operations** and **impact the broader U.S. auto industry**. The Canadian government, citing **new environmental regulations** and **trade agreements**, announced that **Tesla’s production facilities and distribution networks in the country would be phased out**. This surprising action has sent **ripples through both the Canadian and American automotive industries**, and the response from **Elon Musk** has left everyone stunned. **Musk, never one to shy away from controversy**, responded to the news with a **cryptic and powerful statement**—just **nine words—that immediately captured global attention.** In a tweet that quickly went viral, Musk simply said, *“This is only the beginning. Watch closely. The truth’s coming.”* The brief yet bold statement sparked immediate speculation and curiosity about what Musk meant by **“the truth’s coming”**, especially given his long history of defying expectations in the world of **technology and business**. The Canadian government’s decision was fueled by a combination of factors, including **escalating environmental concerns** and the desire to **create a more sustainable, domestic auto industry**. Canada has been pursuing a green agenda, and **Tesla’s presence in the country**—which has been highly reliant on **electric vehicle (EV) technology**—was seen as both an asset and a potential hurdle to **promoting domestic innovation** in EV development. This controversial decision has put pressure on the **U.S. auto industry**, which views Canada as a crucial partner in the supply chain for materials and production. While **Tesla’s fans and supporters** in Canada were left **devastated** by the announcement, **Musk’s response** quickly fueled rumors of a larger, more complex strategy at play. Many fans of Tesla speculated that Musk had a deeper plan for the future of Tesla, including **expanding into new territories or markets** where his company would not be subject to such **political pressures**. Musk’s reputation for **disrupting industries** left many wondering whether this move was part of a **larger game plan to revolutionize the automotive world** once again. Industry analysts, however, have been quick to point out that **this bold move by Canada** could have serious ramifications for the **global auto industry**, particularly in the transition to electric vehicles. Canada had long been seen as a **key partner** in the EV revolution, providing important **resources** like **nickel** and **cobalt** for battery production. By shutting down Tesla’s operations, Canada is now forcing the **U.S. auto industry to pivot** and seek new suppliers, which could slow the momentum of the EV transition. In response to the **Canadian decision**, Musk did not hold back, further intensifying the speculation. *“We’re not slowing down, we’re just getting started,”* Musk tweeted later that day. His statement left industry insiders and journalists wondering what he meant by this and whether **Tesla’s move could mean a shift in global manufacturing power**. Could this mean **Tesla would set up production in new countries** that align with its values of **innovation and sustainability**? Musk’s words sparked an outpouring of comments, with some accusing the Canadian government of **undermining progress** and others praising the boldness of the move, claiming that **Tesla’s success had outgrown Canada’s regulatory system**. The situation has raised questions about the **balance between government regulations and corporate autonomy**, and whether **Tesla’s vision for the future of transportation** is too big for any single nation’s borders to control. While the immediate impact of Canada’s move has yet to be fully seen, the implications for the **future of electric vehicles and the global automotive market** are enormous. Tesla has been at the forefront of innovation in the electric vehicle sector, and its **global footprint** has been an important factor in the company’s ability to drive change. As **Elon Musk’s cryptic response** suggests, the story is far from over—**the next steps** in this ongoing drama will shape the future of both **Tesla** and the **global automotive industry**. As the situation unfolds, **the world watches eagerly**, waiting for Musk’s next move and the details of the **plans** he has in place. Whether this is simply a **temporary setback** or the beginning of a **larger transformation** in the global auto industry, one thing is clear—**Elon Musk is not done challenging the status quo**, and his next steps could **change the industry forever**.
