Kerry said "wait and see," although he also said he was too tired for anything he said to be considered canon.

I get the impression most fans considered Nora/Ren to be canon from the volume 4 finale, although, as I've said elsewhere, I was a bit puzzled by that. On the other hand, "get back here with my man" is something I could have seen her saying even back at Beacon. I think it might just be that CRWBY are really, really bad at romance.

For editing purposes, I don't think either can be considered canon, wherever you would even put that. For practical purposes, I would say it is canon - the handholding is sauce for the gander, but more than that I find it hard to take the scene with her and Ruby any other way.
