For the answer to this question you should refer to the Catechism of the Roman Catholic Church, which you will find on the Vatican's website. Following are two of the three paragraphs that deal with the celibacy of priests found within part two, section two, chapter three, article 6 of the catechism: 1579 All the ordained ministers of the Latin Church, with the exception of permanent deacons, are normally chosen from among men of faith who live a celibate life and who intend to remain celibate "for the sake of the kingdom of heaven."70 Called to consecrate themselves with undivided heart to the Lord and to "the affairs of the Lord,"71 they give themselves entirely to God and to men. Celibacy is a sign of this new life to the service of which the Church's minister is consecrated; accepted with a joyous heart celibacy radiantly proclaims the Reign of God.72 1599 In the Latin Church the sacrament of Holy Orders for the presbyterate is normally conferred only on candidates who are ready to embrace celibacy freely and who publicly manifest their intention of staying celibate for the love of God's kingdom and the service of men. See also the New Advent website, which is a Roman Catholic encyclopedia website.

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

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.
