Contrasts

Stephen Harper's comment when Russia limits gas supplies to the Ukraine for political reasons:
We believe in the free exchange of energy products based on competitive market principles, not self-serving monopolistic political strategies.
Stephen Harper's comment when the U.S. holds up Russia's entry into the World Trade Organization for political reasons (in this case an expectation that Congress won't settle for anything less than increased guaranteed access for U.S. agricultural products):
*sound of crickets chirping*
(Edit: cleaned up wording.)
