I thought that was a corporate logo, marketing banner or something like that. Nope. It's actually a flag!

This has got to be one of the first times that people outside of Alberta are hearing about High Level.

Can confirm. I was just map surfing in Canada, followed a random road and found this gem.

It could have been a really nice flag, if it would be just the left part.

And even that is closer to a coat of arms IMO.

The left part looks like one the safety square or fire diamond you see in chemical containers and facilities processing hazardous chemicals, but with the squares filled with pictograms.
