While a Mayor is only one vote on council, that person really does symbolize the direction and voice of a city.....and a city without forward direction is disheartening. A half-decade or more of that? No thanks.

Unfortunately for you your choice may be down to Vancouver as pretty much all of Toronto's mayoral candidates are as bad or worse than McIver. Rob Ford for example is one of the front funners.
