Feel like it's a missed opportunity to not be referring to these guys as the Third Rich as a simple pun.

No one goes on the Internet and just lies.

Yeah they're all part of the Brassica family. Canola is a bred cultivar of Rapeseed with low levels of erucic acid suited for human consumption and very widely grown so while not completely synonymous with Rapeseed using the term Canola is usually correct especially with respect to the cooking oil.

I only just found out about it from this thread.

Yes it should. Kind of in the same way that it should be "I couldn't care less" instead of "I could care less" which I've seen a lot more in recent years.

Title is misleading, FTA:

Confirmation that I am 63% British and Irish, 17% Danish and otherwise “broadly north-western European”. I felt a resounding ambivalence about the results, including some disappointment that I had not discovered a newfound heritage – a piece of information that would give my identity new dimension.

But also:

My father’s side of the family is meticulous about tracking our ancestry, with records that hold the name of the exact small village in Ireland our ancestors hail from.

Those results often can't narrow down to exact countries so it says he's 63% British and Irish. Seeing as his fathers family has records of being from a small Irish town it's likely he's more Irish that British, not that it means anything if you're actually American anyway.
