Even a minority conservative government with a strong NDP would have been better than a minority neo-liberal (read fiscal conservative) and conservative (read morally conservative) government with no one to stop them.

The liberals are so conservative under Carney that conservatives are jumping to his party ffs.

Surely you jest… not only your "better" alternative is entirely hypothetical, and impossible for the electorate to target… but giving power to the maple magas would be suicide and never ever conductive to compromise of any kind

Just look south and you can see the playbook the cons here would apply (they have adopted it all). PP would starve the most vulnerable Canadians to force a vote on making it illegal to say the word "trans"

Carney is a heartless bastard and we do need to fight this budget but to pretend flirting with maple maga is a better alternative is laughable

I think we're misunderstanding each other here.
