Fortunately for Erin O'Toole and the CPC, the events/debacle of the Newfoundland and Labrador election have probably reduced the odds of a spring federal campaign to nil. 



The Liberals win the most seats in 92% of simulations:



Unsurprisingly, the most likely scenario according to current data would be a Liberal minority. In the graph below, 95 per cent of all simulations are located in the shaded oval:
