'can too'. This one I'm going to have to go on process of
elimination because 'can to' doesn't make any grammatical sense,
be it colloquial or otherwise.  One would think that the use of
'too' in that phrase came from one of its meanings:  as well:
used to indicate that a person, thing, or aspect of a situation
applies in addition to the one just mentioned  But we're not
exactly expressing one's ability to do something 'as well'.
Rather, we're negating the previous person's assertion that we
cannot do it. Regardless, the answer is 'can too'.
