    ST. JOHN'S, N.L. — The Progressive Conservative party of Newfoundland has lost a candidate.
     
    Donald Slaney, Tory candidate for Burin-Grand Bank, in Southeast Newfoundland has withdrawn from the race because of torn ligaments in his foot.
     
    Slaney says in a Facebook post dated Saturday that the injury leaves him unable to give a 100 per cent effort to the campaign, so he has decided to withdraw.
