Unless you're storing all your canned goods on deck, it shouldn't make the boat that unstable. That said...make sure how ever you do store the canned goods that they can not shift, even at high angles of heel or if you are rolled. A 16 oz. can of soup is a lethal projectile, and if the boat heels and they do shift, that could cause you a lot of problems.
If you are storing cans where moisture is an issue, it might be wise to mark the tops with indelible ink (think Sharpie markers) and coat the cans in wax. Removing the labels of cans stored in the bilge can be a really good idea too...as the labels will tend to come off and can end up plugging the bilge pump hose and such.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
