If your URL in the address bar is like
https://<yourdomain>.sharepoint.com/sites/<yoursite>/Lists/<yourlistname>
with either
/<viewname>.aspx
or
?viewid=<lotsofrandomcharacters>
at the end, it should work whether you include that ending view information or not.
I suspect that CM-Ontario's problem was that they were on a page with the list in a web part. If you are viewing a page with the list in a web part and you see a link named "See all" at the upper right corner, that will be the link to your list.
