Ok I see your point.

I would speculate that the Liberals were in fact aware of this attempted coalition before the mini-budget and initially refused to join. When Harper decided to cut their lifeblood, they went ballistic and said screw it, we're not dealing with this anymore and joined this (inherently problematic) coalition. We can all blame whomever we want, but ultimately the cause and effect relationship is pretty clear. As well, it doesn't matter anymore to the Liberals that the provision is gone as they've shown their cards and the hands have been dealt. It's pretty much all in from here on out.
