As much as I'm a proponent of HTML/CSS/Javascript/Canvas (indeed, they are my primary areas of knowledge), I believe that learning AS3 is still very relevant and very beneficial. Not only are there still plenty of openings for flash folk (and will be for a while), the tenets of OOP necessary to write AS3 well are absolutely transferable to other languages. Plus, the syntax is really similar to Javascript. You're gonna need to know to a little HTML/CSS/JS to get flash stuff on the web anyway. Don't learn AS3 at the exclusion of learning these other things, but definitely learn it if you feel like you want to.
I know that's not at all what the original question was, but this thread is threatening to derail into a conversation about the merits of learning AS3, and I just had to insist that it is an absolutely valid pursuit.
