This is actually not a problem of my module, it is generic problem of prestashop and/or theme. It is the theme that should implement canonical tags for product page.

My module implements canonical tags for All review pages because this is the page it owns. It can't, however, adds these canonical tags to Product page, because it doesn't own it.
