The next premier of Newfoundland and Labrador will be announced in May, the province’s Liberal Party says.

The Liberal Party of Newfoundland and Labrador (LPNL) kicked off the race March 3 to find its new leader after current Premier Andrew Furey announced his plan last week to step down once a successor has been appointed.
