So you've come down from your position that nothing of value will come out and have admitted we won't know until it comes out.

I did no such thing.

Given that, and the fact that the majority of Canadians don't want another election right now

Depends on the polls you have read. A recent poll by CTV asked "Will you be angry with the opposition if they force a federal election this summer?" Out of 19757 people, 56% said "No".

It must be getting hard to hold on to the belief that it's only the Liberals who are playing partisan politics.

I never ONCE indicated anything of the sort. I have watched almost every minute of the House events live for the last few weeks. Without question, since Harper said he is going to bring down the government, he (and the Conservatives) have taken every possible opportunity to plant non-confidence type amendments wherever possible.
Just today, however, one got passed 153-150. Two Liberals were away from the House, and one independent was too ill to be there. The two Conservatives who are also quite ill DID get to the house to vote, thus the motion was passed.
House passes motion asking Liberals to resign
'Tis the reality of the political situation.
