this is not an issue, and flynax software is telling search engines that one page --> website.com/item is the main website
and website.com/canada/item is just a copy of it.
this is an example from flynax demo site header:
<link rel="canonical" href="https://classifieds.demoflynax.com/properties/houses/2838-grand-ave-88-65.html" />
<link rel="alternate" href="https://classifieds.demoflynax.com/united-states/properties/houses/2838-grand-ave-88-65.html" hreflang="en" />
<link rel="alternate" href="https://classifieds.demoflynax.com/ar/united-states/properties/houses/2838-grand-ave-88-65.html" hreflang="ar" />
<link rel="alternate" href="https://classifieds.demoflynax.com/pt/united-states/properties/houses/2838-grand-ave-88-65.html" hreflang="pt" />
<link rel="alternate" href="https://classifieds.demoflynax.com/tr/united-states/properties/houses/2838-grand-ave-88-65.html" hreflang="tr" />
<link rel="alternate" href="https://classifieds.demoflynax.com/ru/united-states/properties/houses/2838-grand-ave-88-65.html" hreflang="ru" />
note that the other version of the same page url is marked with "alternate" tag and the original version is marked with "canonical".

One more question. For example: mydomain.com/colombia has a canonical link to mydomain.com - did this mean, that google doesn't index the folder /colombia, or how it works, because i like to have also indexed country specific folders? Thanks
