Paragraphs are your friend, and it's canon, not cannon (though canon may be enforced by cannon).

Quite frankly, i doubt it will end. Itachi Shinden, a book, is already getting translated to filler. There are a few more of those, so Pierrot can easily sustain this for 2016. Jiraiya Chronicles is already a dozen or so episode filler of original material. Even after Naruto (/Part 1) they fit in close to a hundred filler episodes, and it didn't kill the series.

So Pierrot won't end Naruto just because the main story is over. It didn't stop them before, it won't stop them now.
