    Please fucking no - majority governments suck.

    Compromise is a necessary part of the political process.

      Minority governments are unstable, unpredictable, and result from very close-call elections. They may be okay-ish at getting progressive domestic policies passed, but the priority should be strong foreign policy for the near term. A majority is at least stable and consistent.

      Yes, but unfortunately we have a system that only produces minorities when you’re very close to the other guy getting a majority.

      There is no compromise with MAGA. The conservatives need to purge that element of their party.

        A minority government composed of LPC and NDP or BQ.

        The LPC shouldn’t have unilateral control but should be required to sell their policies to the other policies.
