Yes it is. We grow a lot of it in the uk. It is a type of brassica plant.
‘Canola’ is an invented word.
All words are invented. Some have just been around longer than others.
The name canola is a contraction of Canada and ola, meaning oil (appears
to be of Gaelic/Irish origin). To earn the name canola, products must
meet an internationally regulated standard.
Canola is the world's only "Made in Canada" crop. It was developed by
researchers from Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada and the University of
Manitoba in the 1970s, using traditional plant breeding techniques.

I believe Quadrotriticale was also invented in Canada......

Nice image.
Is that "rapeseed"? I saw similar fields in rural Ireland, and that was
the explanation I was given.
