I didn't think that canaries were dependent on other canaries. A lot of them HAVE to be kept separately, as they can be aggressive. Your male SHOULD be fine, but if you notice problems with him, you MIGHT want to consider getting another canary. Remember that you should quarantine any new birds in a separate room for a few months.
