Greetings.
Coalition talks have been going heavy and the CA would like to point out one thing. While we have a Canadian/European-style parliament, it is possible to have free votes as opposed to coalition votes.
The CA is willing to enter a conservative or moderate coalition to create a government to run the daily affairs of the nation, while allowing free votes on matters that come before parliament so parties or individuals can vote according to their own consciences without the risk of destabilizing the acting government.
This is a possibility. The Americans on here may no be familiar with the type of system, but only on confidence motions do party/coalition lines have to be strict, because if they fail the government is toppled for a new election. But free votes allow members to vote according to their consciences without the risk of toppling the government.
