Lightbulb Canadian Ruling

QUESTION????
Once the kicker leaves his position as an apparent kicker is the holder down because he has a knee on the ground??
To make this play legal does the holder need to rise to get his knee off the ground???
CANADIAN RULING:

The holder must lift his knee off the ground to legally throw the ball. In our game, the R would have blown this play down with no points scored.
