McCann was elected to the Northern Ireland Assembly representing West Belfast in 2003 and again in 2007.〔(Sinn Féin: Fra McCann MLA West Belfast )〕
He was imprisoned during the 1970s for firearms offences. While being held in H-Block 3 of the Maze, McCann befriended Kieran Nugent and participated in the blanket protest.〔(village.ie report on Sinn Féin politicians )〕〔(Obituary of Nugent by McCann )〕
In June 2006 McCann was charged with assault and disorderly behaviour following an incident in west Belfast. The incident occurred as the PSNI were attempting to arrest a teenager for attempted robbery. However, McCann alleged heavy-handedness and stated "I tried to put myself between one of the officers and the girl when the police officer radioed for assistance." McCann was released on bail.〔(BBC News )〕〔(Slugger O'Toole )〕
