Education Minister Jeff Johnson sent an email directly to teachers on Wednesday about the future of education in Alberta.
The Alberta Teachers Association is currently negotiating contracts with school boards across the province, and some question whether Johnson's email was appropriate.
Others are wondering why Johnson's message showed up in their personal email accounts.
