It's canon, but it's ONI propoganda. The Battle happened. The soldiers were real. The monument built was real. But the Chief was never there.
If you were ONI, would you want the public to know that the "last" Spartan-II died (as far as they knew) in extra-galactic space due to unlucky events while fighting a deadly parasite and using a giant megastructure to destroy it? You'd probably rather have him die in a local battle as a hero, without curiosity spiking and possibly dangerous public knowledge.
The soldiers say the Chief was there, but it was probably ONI bending the truth and told these soldiers to say he did certain things when it was probably just other marines that each did a different act rather than the Chief doing all of them. Also, the Chief was a hero, so they wanted him to still be considered a hero without anybody knowing what he did to really be considered such a hero.
So Humanity is at peace with the Elites? there wasn't another confrontation or anything?
