Lord of Souls was written well after MK left bethesda. It's not canon. It was comissioned by Bethesda as tie-in novels and introduced the Thalmor, Aldmeri Dominion, Mede Dynasty, Red Year, Decree of Monument, and Argonian Invasion years before they appeared in Skyrim. They're canon. If they weren't, they wouldn't be referenced constantly in-game.

And what does MK have to do with this? He hasn't worked for Bethesda in 14 years. By that logic Oblivion and Skyrim aren't canon either since they were published after MK left.

What? Are you drunk or something? Why would things made by their owner not be canon because one writer was replaced?
