Je Suis Charlie Eh?

Picture this and tell me if any media outlet in Canada would show this in a cartoon or a comedy sketch....
(interior police car, red and blue lights flashing on the interior roof, a drunk in gang banger clothes being loaded into the back.)
Cop: "Welcome to Cash Cruiser, the game show we play right here in my police car.  It's 39 blocks to the station, I'm going to ask you a series of questions. For each one you get right, you'll get closer to the safe, warm drunk tank at the city cells and earn money for your fines, for each one you get wrong you'll get a strike. Three strikes and we'll drop you off to fend for yourself. You have three shout outs available, you can try two family members who'll take you in and you can call a lawyer. Ready?"
Drunk, "ok, but don't hurt my snake."
Cop, "your snake is fine. alright, we'll start with the $100 questions;
What historical figure, born in 1844, executed in 1885 and is widely considered to be the 'Father of Manitoba?"
Drunk, "Easy, eh..Tupac. The struggle is real muthafacca."
Cop, "Sorry, we were looking for Louis Riel, strike one. Now for $500, what's your home address? Remember, you have all your shout outs left."
Drunk, "zzzzzzzz"
