Dunno, I wasn't a huge Helps fan myself initially but 'damn' be careful what you wish for: if it is true that incumbent/name recognition more often than not wins the day then God help us Ben "Never met an anti-capitalist Marxist Revolutionary I didn't like" Isitt just might decide to toss his name into the mayoralty ring.....
If you think the "Victoria Mayoral Reign of Inaction Terror" list just couldn't get any worse than those completely useless, vacuous past mayors - David ("Mayor Moonbeam") Turner or Gretchen Brewin - one can only imagine what an utter wet noodle with respect to new development Isitt would be based on past comments and his voting record.
In terms of approving nothing he'd give that awful Brewin - Turner NDP tandem (their terms ran consecutively from 1986-93) a run for their money - and I thought that just would never ever be possible even in pokey little "Mayberry RFD, West". Talk about a Bizarro Town living in a development vacuum during those years. Pretty sure an Isitt-led City of Victoria would closely mirror that time. The horror, the horror....
