‘It’s scary:’ new flag people prepared for highway dangers
This year is Albert Brown’s first summer working as a highway flag person.
He took the job as a way to make extra money before returning to Medicine Hat for schooling.
He realized right from the beginning how dangerous the job may be.
“We were told in training you had to wake up thinking that this could be my last day so you have to go to work and safety has to be your number one priority.”
