Maybe but consider: Unrestrained liberal rule will simply lead to a conservative majority later on. The only way to beat fascism is a government that actually works for the people, and a liberal majority isn't that.
I’d chime in that the minority government up until this election has finally gotten us dental care and the foundations for pharmacare, which weren’t delivered during the last Liberal majority.
Sure, but we're not getting any new social programs while Trump is cratering the economy anyway so in this case we need a stable government to hold strong in front of an ally turned enemy.
A majority government doesn’t guarantee stability beyond the surface, and if our own internal issues don’t also get sufficiently addressed, we’re only buying 4 years which may not be enough time to stem the flow of populism which a prolonged economic downturn with a continually faltering safety net is a perfect recipe for a conservative majority.
I doubt the American situation would be resolved within 4 years, but giving one party all the power could sow a lot more discontent amongst ourselves than a government losing support and triggering an early election which could be for the better (again, even with the American situation, a majority government wouldn’t guarantee anything other than buying 4 years which might not be what’s needed if things go past that timeframe)
