Charles,
When he is talking about other industries he is talking about the pipeline, he has publicly admitted that he supports fracking and oil industries aspiration to connect the oil-rich Albertans with the Irving refinery. So there is an obvious contradiction here, how can you have a clean city with fossil fuel contaminate.
While it is the council as collective who votes, O'Brien being the CEO of the city has to take responsibility for the decision of his Councillors. Like the Captain of a ship, the captain has to take responsibility for the actions of his/her crew.
Predicting whether or not he will be successful in the next election if he chooses to run is a little premature at this time. Several factors will come into play, one is the personality of the person who runs against him assuming that the mayor's position will not be won by acclamation, which is a possible outcome and the other is the issues which may be present at that time.
Obrien personality, cannot be compared with (fibber) Wilkins and Brad Woodside. relative to these two individuals Obrien is bland. If the potential candidate has any colour in their personality the chance of a defeat for O'Brien is great. I am not saying that O'Brien is a bad guy, it's just that he is so normal that his boring.
