Shepard can choose not to do Arrival. In that case ME3 changes the codex on that event and tells the player that a different squad did the job.
So in other words: Yes, the events in Arrival are canon, but no, Shepard doing those events isn't always canon , it only is if you chose to play that piece of DLC. If you skip the DLC, the canon changes and tells you that a different squad did that Arrival mission.
No the canon does not change. That's really what "canon" means here - the official core storyline which remains consistent. If your Shepard doesn't do arrival then he/she effectively branches off into a parallel fictional universe, diverging from that canon.
Also from Home Run MF's post on the previous page -
http://social.biowar...7/2348#15166925It's clear from Vega's comic, which is considered part of the canon, that he was assigned to guard Shepard because of the events of Arrival.
