I personally think the conservatives missed the boat. The Canadian people clearly said (in multiple elections) we do not want single party control, that is why no one has won a majority. The people wanted each party to negotiate and form coalitions, that is why no one has a majority. None of the parties have shown enough to be trusted with the keys of power alone, that was the result of the elections.
The people clearly said: work together to solve problems. The Liberals and NDP seemed to have figured this out, the Conservatives could have reached out but seemed to have missed the boat. None of the Conservatives, Liberals or NDP actually won a mandate, all 3 were told to work together.
