I wouldn't say it is non-canon. Just one little change doesn't mean an installment is automatically non-canon. As Edaphosaurus has said before me things like this happen all the time with other franchises, such as Star Wars. Unless the later films have more contradicting info I'd say JP: TG is still canon.
