Giving anyone a minority isn't an option on election day.

Believe me when I tell you, I am no fan of the PCs at all. They should have been ousted long ago. But does it not concern you even slightly that the highest related position Danielle Smith has held was head of an admitedly dysfunctional school board? I'm not saying you need to be a multi-term MLA or political vet to be in office, but to be in total control?
As to voting for a minority government, no you cannot directly vote for a minority. You can, however, vote against a party in the hopes of proping up the opposition, which can lead to a minority. I think voting against a party is stupid, but then again no one ever said the average electorate are all that bright.
