A canonical issue means that when your website can be accessed by search engines from several different URLs. Search engines potentially index your site under different URLs, meaning is that it will look like a site of duplicate content.

An option for dealing with duplicate content is to utilize the rel=canonical tag. The rel=canonical tag passes the same amount of link juice (ranking power) as a 301 redirect, and often takes much less development time to implement. The tag is part of the HTML head of a web page.

Canonical issue is nothing but when on a site you post same content for different url. But not redirect, at that place canonical issue arise. To remove this issue use Canonical tag in head section.

A canonical issue arises when 301 redirects are not properly in place. This means that your website can be accessed by search engines from several different URLs. This means that search engines can then potentially index your site under different URLs, meaning that it will look like a site of duplicated content.
