In practice the entire government has been propped up by a leftist coalition between the Liberals and NDPs, in recent years, so functionally I think they have done just fine.
In fact, in a first-past-the-post system with a minority government you often end up giving disproportionate power to the third place party, in terms of the popular vote (in this case the NDP) because they hold up the government and can make significant demands in doing so. This has been absolutely borne out in Canada.
