There are 2 ways to fix this:

  1. Change the Sorting Layer of the obstructing object or the Order in Layer of the obstructing object to be lower than that of the canvas.

OR

  1. Make a new canvas, and assign it a new Sorting Layer that is above all other existing Sorting Layers. Move any text you want into the new canvas.

As an example for #2, here I have my normal text in a lower canvas, but I created an overlay canvas for text that absolutely must go above everything else.

enter image description here

I find that the second solution is a better general solution for the issue, as in the first solution you have to change the layers for every object in the scene that might obstruct your text.
