I am from Canada and I took a DNA test. My DNA test came back 100% European BUT advised I am 2% Ashkenazi Jewish. I am having a difficult time understanding this. The DNA test advised I most likely had a great grand parent that was 100% Ashkenazi Jewish. What does this mean? Is this meaning one of my ancestors left the Jewish homeland of Israel and moved to Europe?
Thank you so much!

I'm not 100% convinced DNA testing is that accurate. And I'm not sure what being 2% Ashkenazi means. Most likely just a part of the world where they lived.
The basic rule is if your mother is Jewish, than you are!
You really can't be 2%!
