    I would like to know if canonical is needed in the next example.

    www.example.com?hi

    The content is equal to www.example.com. Should I define <link href="www.example.com" rel="canonical" /> for the example above? is it really needed to avoid duplicate content ?

    I think yes you need to. Also check with your admin dashboard wherein you can change your main site's url and redefine it.

    It will avoid the duplicate content issues between example.com and example.com/home
