I do not get this opinion. If Harper passes a Conservative budget with no deficit and little extra spending then his government falls. Then you would likely have either 1) another minority government with less of a mandate or 2) a Liberal lead coalition
Nothing we can do about it but wait for the next inevitable liberal implosion.
Edit: I am also very sure that Harper does not want much of what is in this budget. Tough to fault him for having to concede a bit to keep the conservatives in power.
