I'm a little confused about canonical tags. Once I've added the rel canonical to the preferred url, do I need to do anything the other url?

There is no need to do anything for other URL. after canonicalization you will redirect to a new page from referral page

The rel canonical attribute helps to eliminate page duplication problems. It is used when redirects cannot be used. But it is better to avoid duplication of pages and make 301 redirects.

A canonical tag is a way of telling search engines that a specific URL represents the master copy of a page. Using the canonical tag prevents problems caused by identical or "duplicate" content appearing on multiple URLs.

hello @Maddy
A canonical tag specifies the source URL (or original content page) of a given page to a search engine such as Google. Canonical tags are used to declare a single page as its own source or for duplicate pages to reference their source / originating page. Search Engines use the canonical tag to combat duplicate content issues and assign search engine ranking value for that content to the page designated as the “source” URL.So you dont need to do anything , the page automatically redirect to linked pages
