Canola was originally developed from rapeseed plants, which have been cultivated for thousands of years. The name "canola" comes from "Canadian oil, low acid," reflecting its origins in Canada during the 1970s when researchers bred a variety of rapeseed with low levels of erucic acid and glucosinolates, making it more suitable for human consumption. This new name helped distinguish it from traditional rapeseed, which had higher levels of undesirable compounds.

Canola is called 'colza' in French.
The traditional name of the oil commonly called "canola" is "rapeseed oil".

"Raw" rapeseed oil is high in erucic acid, a known carcinogen, and must be processesd to reduce the erucic acid content. This cooking oil was originally marketed as Lear Oil, low-Erucic Acid Rapeseed Oil, but later was named Canola oil when marketed to the United States.
