I think the coalition, or threat of one, is the best tool the opposition currently has to keep Harper on the straight and narrow. Trying to run a minority government like he has a majority is not the way to stay in power.
Harper needs to make some very strong conciliatory gestures to the opposition. Having representatives from the NDP and the Liberals at the table while coming up with a new budget would be a good start.
