Beliefs

Agar has shown skepticism about the effects of man-made global warming on polar bears and has written many blog entries critical of the scientific consensus on global warming.[4]

Agar is a strong advocate for the War on Drugs when it comes to hard drugs like crack and heroin [5] and has been very critical of the safe injection site Insite, the only legal supervised injection site in North America. This position has been the source of criticism.[6]

Agar has also been critical of the Province of Ontario's decision to disallow Catholic school boards' banning of Gay Straight Alliances.[7]
