Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat; add onion and red pepper and cook until softened and starting to brown, about 7 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently; cool. Mix together the onion mixture, egg, tuna, breadcrumbs, salt, and pepper. Form the mixture into 4 patties. Add canola oil to lightly coat the bottom of a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the patties and fry until golden brown on both sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
