That is a very interesting question. Do you mean Canon? This question can have various answers depending on what you mean!

The Canon of the Mass is the Eucharistic Prayer (What the priest says after the Holy, Holy Holy up to and including the through him with him and in him"). It includes the consecration (saying "this is my body" and "this is the cup of my blood . . . " ) epiclesis (invocation of the holy ghost) and other parts. The Roman Canon is one of the Eucharistic Prayers that the priest can say. Before Vatican II it was the only Eucharistic Prayer/Canon used at Mass. Now it is Eucharistic Prayer I (there are three others I believe the priest can use now after Vatican II).

Canon Law is the legal system used by the Catholic Church to govern itself.

A Canon can also be a priest who is (or was) involved in the administration of a cathedral or collegiate body.
