The conservatives alread knew about the coalition plans right from the start. They already knew no one was interested in negotiations.
*hits head against wall as well* lol. At that stage of the game, they could have negotiated with the Liberals (or even the Bloc!). There was no signed accord. Who's to say this didn't occur? My suggestion was the only time they did try to negotiate was when they realized their power was in jeopardy. It was too late anyways, confidence was lost because of the blatant partisanship displayed by Harper.
