You never provided and actual evidence of a private system doing better, all you're doing is talking about anecdotal evidence.

Let me help you with a very basic stat:

Life expectancy:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_life_expectancy

Canada is number 20, USA is number 55

Infant mortality rate:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_infant_and_under-five_mortality_rates

Canada is number 38, USA is number 49 based on the World Bank, Canada is number 43, USA is number 55 based on the CIA World Fact Book (you know about the CIA right? The US agency...), Canada #42 vs USA #52 from 0-1 year old based on the UN
