If you find this tricky you could always use the tiny holes where the double threads of the waste canvas meet instead of the larger ones. The starch or glue in the canvas is water soluble so it needs wetting to help you to remove it.

I used the spray function on my iron to dampen it, but you could also wash and dry the whole garment before tackling the next step. Start by removing your tacking stitches or at least those that are visible - the cross stitches may cover some of them. Now raid your manicure set for a pair of tweezers, or find a pair with a little magnifier attached if you have some. It is also a good idea to have a little pot or something handy to collect all the loose threads you are going to remove.

Concentrating on one thread at a time, gently grab it with the tweezers and pull it out from under your cross stitches. Be extra careful if the stitches hold it down in more than one place.

In my robin some of the threads first go under his boots, then later are positioned under his body. The photo shows this step in progress. Take your time, don't rush. Try not to yank the waste canvas threads from under the cross stitch.
