Canvas defines an area within which you have to explicitly position TextBlock element by coordinates relative to the Canvas area. Means you have to do absolute positioning inside a Canvas.

If you really want to use a Canvas, you can better take a transparent Grid inside it and put a TextBlock inside that Grid.

Example:

<Canvas x:Name="imageOne" Background="White" Width="480" Height="800">
    <Grid Width="480" Height="800">
        <TextBlock Text="Visifire" VerticalAlignment="Bottom" HorizontalAlignment="Right"/>
    </Grid>
</Canvas>

Please make sure that the Grid size is same as Canvas size.
