The prime minister was asked if he’ll pursue a governing pact with the NDP. “No,” he said.

And why not, the reporter asked.

“Why?” Carney retorted.

The PM said the Liberals campaigned on a clear set of objectives, and while they didn’t quite get a majority, “we will be putting forth legislation that’s consistent with our platform.”

That's a puzzling position, they don't have a majority, and the NDP are not exactly a long way from the Libs on most subjects. NDP have enough seats to make it a coalition majority

Not at all. Another ‘coalition government’, which wasn’t a coalition govt, is rage fodder for the lunatics.

Well when the polling was that bad its generally a bad look to be the sole thing propping it up, hence how they lost official party status. They also somehow didnt see Trudeau raising capital gains taxes to turn boomers against him, blowing through the budget so Freeland could create fake drama blaming Trudeau, and setting things up so Carney could come in as a savior to keep the party in power.
