User blog comment:Roofhowse/CP Theories: Is the Animation Canon to Club Penguin?/@comment-26996006-20151214234116

They are part of the canon, recently in the newspaper Aunt Arctic mentioned the history about the Megalodon in her ask section, canon characters appear in the shorts (Rockhopper, Herbert, Cadence, Gary, Rookie, Merry Walrus, Gariwald VIII), and one of the moderators said during an interview that the main characters from the animated specials could one day become mascots. Also, it would be quite irrelevant to make those animations if they aren't canon to CP's storyline, after all, when something's isn't canon they say it, like in the Star Wars party, Spike Jike said that was not canon.
