How can you use Voki (javascript based) in Canvas assignment?

HI use to use Voki in my Moodle class.  Now that we are moving to Canvas, I would like to try it here, as well.  The problem is there are two versions of the embed code:  one javascript and one flash.  I can embed the flash one, but the javascript version doesn't work.  

Why not just use the flash version?  Because Flash is being shut out of Chrome this year, so I need a way to do it without relying on flash not being available.  We use Chromebooks in our class, so it will become problematic.

Any workarounds to let the javascript version work?

Here are examples of both codes:

JAVASCRIPT

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="//vhss-d.oddcast.com/voki_embed_functions.php"></script><script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">AC_Voki_Embed(400, 225,"212eb1c283731acd87130c5339f7de4e",13897069, 1, "", 0, 1);</script>

FLASH
