It is alleged that the name Canola was invented, by the politically correct,
from the words Canadian oil low acid because of the
negativity of the word rape.
Definition of Political Correctness.
"Political Correctness (PC) is a doctrine fostered by a
delusional, illogical liberal minority, and rabidly promoted
by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth
the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up
a turd by the clean end."
