The problem with the EU is that it can not only contradict the movies and other EU sources (by the way: If two EU sources contradict each other - which one should be canon ?) it can also contradict Lucas own opinion about certain things not directly mentioned in the movies. And since Lucas is always developing ideas about the "mythology" he created further he sometimes even contradicts his own older statements.

Therefore it's simply impossible to create something like a "canon" EU. That would only be possible if Lucas stops developing his own ideas about SW and starts writing EU material on his own (which would be automatically "canon" because being Lucas' own work) - but that will most likely never happen.
