I’m wondering how an CPC minority government would even work. Especially if a CPC non-confidence vote against the Liberals succeeds and pushes us into a spring election.
On the little graphs they have CPC+NDP and CPC+BQ coalition, but those don’t seem likely. Pollievre would be in an extremely tenuous position.
The same way the last two Conservative minority governments worked: the other parties see no value in a non-confidence vote, so they either abstain from confidence votes, or negotiate a reason to support the Conservatives.

It wouldn’t work with the ndp at all. The bq might with exactly the right set of accommodations, but you’re right it will be tenuous
