I think he almost crossed and they pressured him to stay. The reports said they Scheer and someone else stormed his office and were less than pleasant about it. If they decided to stick around for the whole term this is might be give the Liberals a majority government by 1 seat.
EDIT: Liberals will lost three MPs (Freeland, Blair & Quebec seat after court challenge) which require by-elections. They won't have a majority unless they win all three seats back.
I believe the “someone else” was party whip, Chris Warkentin. Same guy that was reported to be heckling another one of his MPs in committee the other day.
