A minority government is like an 80's slasher flic that has a maniacal killer--aka an election--relentlessly pursuing it. You know he's going to get you in the end but you want to live as long as possible. So what do you do? You fling every obstacle in his path as you run screaming through the halls of Parliament. Hope that helps. Let me explain to you what Harper is doing with this simple analogy.

A minority government is like an 80′s slasher flic that has a maniacal killer–aka an election–relentlessly pursuing it. You know he’s going to get you in the end but you want to live as long as possible. So what do you do? You fling every obstacle in his path as you run screaming through the halls of Parliament.

Hope that helps.
