Not much. A Canon is generally a priest who is or used to be involved with or administer certain types of things like cathedrals or academic bodies. It is just a job title (like pastor, vicar etc). Since it is a great honor to be a Canon, you can call the priest Canon rather than Father out of respect. I'm sure he wouldn't be offended though if you called him Father.
