Could this be "Nodding Thistle?"

Italians pick the flowers and pickle the flower (after removing the leaves and petals and cleaning it up) - it is very much like an Artichoke to eat, although tougher.

This looks more like the Scotch Thistle. Hard to tell from the picture but the Canadian Thistle has a thin stalk and leaves where the Scotch Thistle has fat leaves and the fat round bulb for the purple flower. This is an invasive weed with a long root stem. Pull it out and dig up the root stem to kill it.
