Gov. DeSantis: Disney bringing 'California values' to Florida in objecting to parental rights bill

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. - When you look at the Disney signs outside of Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, you may think of Mickey Mouse and fun times with family for friends at one of the resort's four theme parks, but experts say it's more like a very large company that has its own town."Back in 1967, when Disney was first buying land and getting ready to set up shop here in town, the legislature and governor gave Disney the power of self-government," explained University of Central Florida political science professor Aubrey Jewett.That paved the way for the Reedy Creek Improvement Act which created the special district.Reedy Creek, which consists of around 25,000 acres of land carved out from Orange and Osceola counties, has its own city council. Jewett says the district has two municipalities, Bay Lake and Lake Buena Vista.

Montreal-based study estimates Quebec saw up to 32,000 new daily COVID-19 cases last week
