Canola oil is a type of GM rapeseed oil bred specifically to have lower levels of erucic acid. Erucic acid's adverse health effects have been demonstrated in some animal models but not others. Cardiomyocytes (heart muscle cells) absorb erucic acid but cannot metabolise it - that doesn't sound good to me whatever animal models show.
