link rel="canonical"

Is there a way to generate this automatically in Perch or does it have to be done manually?

You can use PerchSystem::get_page() to get the current page.

Sorry for being slow but where do I put this line and is it exactly as is?

And in your opinion is this still necessary as have read conflicting views?

What does this output?

<?php echo PerchSystem::get_page(); ?>

It outputs everything after the domain e.g. /services/index.php but not the full url.

Before I go further do you think this is necessary site wide?

Necessary for what?

SEO best practice. Other than for blogs or index pages do you think its necessary?

That isn't really something we can advise on :) I'd suggest seeing what Google are saying, their webmaster tools are very helpful for this sort of thing.
