HorizontalAlignment in Canvas

   I don't know if this is an error, or just because I don't know enough about XSAML.
When I write this I expected the hyperlink to be right aligned, on a red background filling the entire control:

<Canvas Background="#ff0000">
<TextBlock HorizontalAlignment='Right'>
<Hyperlink Cursor='Hand'>Link</Hyperlink>
</TextBlock>
</Canvas>

But that fails, and I have to do this instead:

<Grid Background="#ff0000">
<TextBlock HorizontalAlignment='Right'>
<Hyperlink Cursor='Hand'>Link</Hyperlink>
</TextBlock>
</Grid>
