Sorry, Canon EF glass doesn't fit the Canon R5 and R6 without an adapter. With an adapter you can mount such glass on the Sony bodies as well (but most EF glass isn't worth adapting anyway since Sony E has better options).
In terms of actual native lenses Sony E-mount runs circles around Canon R mount. Close to 10x as many since Canon so foolishly decided to eschew third-party lenses.
In the end, the interjection boils down to an apology "Sorry" .. For a lot of photographers, they don't care whether the lens is native, vintage or third party as long as it's an option. Some find the all-native mantra funny sometimes, because many in the so-called native lens clan, use a myriad of 3rd party lights, etc., are seem content. In the end, what may matter most, is what's available entirely, and it's almost "a wash". Maybe with the exception that Sony isn't anywhere near the build of a 1DX mk iii, but the R5 isn't either.
