But is there such a thing as a stronger minority party?

I'm pretty sure they were hoping for a majority government, especially after the polls from 2-3 weeks ago

Responses:

Yes. A minority of 145-80ish is far stronger than one of 112-105. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Oct 14, 19:54 2
- I think the opposition will tread very carefully for the next few months....they denied a majority but only by a few seats -- nm - Walt_Disney Oct 14, 20:09 1
  - Especially when all three independents are likely Tory voters on most issues. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Oct 14, 20:12
