Given the fact that Hardwick has consistently been shown to be unelectable, which candidate do you think would align the second best with a voter who wants to slow down development in Vancouver?
If you base your vote for the mayor entirely on rezoning approval, you'd vote for Rebecca Bligh who voted to approve 100% of the rezonings on Council.

Who knows what Azaroff or Allam would vote? They've never been on Council.

Fry and Sim have both voted against proposals, Fry more than Sim (but he still voted to approve more units than Sim because Sim doesn't attend a lot of the public hearings).

As it appears that COPE, the Greens and OneCity haven't agreed on a single mayoral candidate, it's anybody's guess who might win the mayoral race, parties have until September to nominate candidates. It's possible the Vancouver Conservative party might put up a candidate - they were polling ahead of all the parties at the end of last year, without a single nominated candidate.
