I see where the Bloc are not a signatory to the Coalition Agreement.

I understand that the Bloc are the only party so far who have provided input to the Conservatives with regard to the Budget.

It seems to me that if the Conservatives satisfy the Bloc with their demands, there may be a sufficient number of Bloc members who side with the Conservatives in the non confidence vote, regardless of what the Liberals and NDP do.

It seems the Bloc always like to be the King maker party and this would keep them in that position, although they would be with the Coalition also.

I wonder what exactly is their agreement with the Coalition.
