Newfoundland-Labrador Premier Danny Williams needs heart surgery, but he will not be seeking his heart surgery at home, in Canada. Instead, he will come to the United States for his treatment.

Newfoundland and Labrador deputy premier Kathy Dunderdale confirmed Tuesday that Premier Danny Williams is in the U.S. for heart surgery and could be off the job for up to 12 weeks.
