Smoking Points of Canola & Olive oils

Recently I took the Saute & Pan Roasting quiz. Something strikes me as being a little incongruent. It is my understanding that olive oil blends have  higher smoke points than canola. Now I understand the added cost of using olive oil blends, but as far as food quality & flavor profiles go canola does not compare. Maybe I misunderstood the way your question was formed. Please explain to me how olive oil was an incorrect answer. Thank you Chef.
