	Movies - St. Canard

St. Canard is a fictional city where the cartoon character Darkwing Duck and his supporting characters live. It is probably located in the fictional state of Calisota, the setting of other Disney cartoon cities. A city of skyscrapers, St. Canard is located on the edge of Audubon Bay, and Darkwing Duck's secret headquarters sit on the top of the Audubon Bay Bridge. Audubon Bay is named after the ornithologist John James Audubon. Appropriately, it also bears a passing resemblace to Batman's Gotham City.

Various members of Darkwing's gallery of rogues have tried to conquer St. Canard. The Fearsome Five came very close, ruling it for about one to three days. However, St. Canard was eventually overcome, not by the villains, but by Darkwing himself; in an alternate future, Darkwing Duck becomes DarkWarrior Duck, a crazed, and deadly version of his original identity. Prompted by the disappearance of his adopted daughter Gosalyn, DarkWarrior rules the city with an iron fist. This alternate future was apparently destroyed altogether when Gosalyn and her unintending 'kidnappers', Quackerjack and Megavolt, returned to the present day of the series.

The Audubon Bay Bridge connects St. Canard to Duckburg, a larger city and the residence of most of the Ducktales gang.

The city's name comes from the French word canard which means "duck".
