Hello everybody...

This is not what "canon" means. In a literary sense, a
canon is a body of work, or a set of writings,
accepted as definitive, or genuine. It has nothing to
do with "whether or not a story actually happened". 

As far as I am aware, no Duck comic has "actually
happened". The stories are fictional.

Best wishes
