Actually, KROWE90, Portable Ops IS canon, considering that MGS4 specifically included its events in the various flashback scenes and even an in-game timeline featured Portable Ops in there. If it truly weren't canon, it wouldn't be acknowledged at all, not even in the flashbacks. Think how Snake's Revenge is not acknowledged at all.

Now, that being said, Rising's canonicity IS debatable, and we don't even need Kojima's contradictory word to know that Survive ain't canon.
