There is nothing in the Canadian constitution mandating that the party with plurality is the one that the PM is picked from. It's a convention that has basis in practice and not by any written rule.

A Conservative quite frankly will not be able to get anything done in our current political situation and will not be able to govern the country. A Liberal government stands a chance of governing by working with both parties (as the centre-right party although some may dispute that) and second most seats.
