Sometimes they come out easily if they have the paper surrounding the assembled caps, and it is not impregnated by the goo they pour into the can...
For the ones that are stuck you will have to heat the can. I set the can in a pan of simmering water on the stove.
In a couple of cases I had to drill a small hole in the side of the can near the top to allow air to enter the can as I was pulling the caps out, as the suction developed was making it nearly impossible to do so otherwise.
