   ==========   
   Canada vs. US healthcare outcomes   
      
   Based on recent data, Canada's healthcare system shows better outcomes   
   for both life expectancy and infant mortality compared to the United   
   States. Canada's system focuses on universal access and preventive care,   
   while the U.S. system offers faster access to specialists and advanced   
   treatments but faces issues with cost and coverage equity.
