You want to claim that a letter asking the GG to consider her options is a smoking gun that points to Harper trying to form a coalition government and it isn't.

If they were going to say "never mind, carry on", why would they ask for a consultation in the first place? Gilles says it was a coalition agreement, Jack says it was a coalition agreement, and it only makes sense that it was a coalition agreement. Harper is lying through his teeth, unless you're the NHL war room.
