Considering how bland and boring some of the original characters are in comparison to their Once counterparts (I'm looking at you, 14 year old Snow White!) I actually consider Once as my official Disney canon, especially since all of these characters interact, something that doesn't happen in the true Disney canon.

Hopefully the rumored Frozen sequel takes place BEFORE the events of Once (which themselves are approximately 2-3 years after the events of Frozen itself). The sequel is implied to have a redeemed Hans as well, so while I'd love that, it'd definitely mess up the Once/Frozen canonicity... But I'm just rambling. I get what you mean as taking OUaT as canon, I've been doing that myself. But as Frozen is an ongoing franchise, it's a bit different. The only thing Once has done to contradict Frozen is rename Idun as Gerda (because even Olaf is canon, as Elsa says to Ingrid "have you ever made a snowman come to life?"), so until a sequel of Frozen comes out and contradicts Once, I'll be taking Once as canon tbh
