Make sure that the vacuum line from the canister to the intake is not clogged up with charcoal, this happens when the foam filter fails in the busted canister. Canister is easy to replace, just pull the cover and you will easily figure it out.

P1441 does not mean the canister is bad, it means you are getting vacuum in the EVAP system when there is not supposed to be (sometimes causing charcoal to be sucked out of the canister). You can go ahead and replace the canister, but if you don't fix the real problem, it is going to keep doing the same thing.
I would suspect the EVAP solenoid, first. You will also need to blow out the charcoal in the lines to the canister after getting the problem repaired.
