You are suggesting that $X in profit = $X of having “overcharged” the customer.
This is completely ridiculous on its face. No private entity will or should ever go to all the effort and time and resources to start a new business if there will never be any profit. Obviously.
And ironically, even if the government gets involved in providing X instead, without profit in mind, the bureaucracy is such that its ‘no profit’ price for X is invariably higher than a price a private entity can charge while profiting.
Profits are revenues minus spendings, remove the leech and you need less revenues to make the same profit. That’s how companies manage to make their numbers look good by cutting staff, but they’ll never cut upper management (the guys you’re defending).
Ontario privatize hydro, rates go up
Hydro Quebec is a crown corporations and offers the best rates in North America
Saskatchewan has the best telecom rates in Canada through its crown corporation
Quebec and BC have the best car insurance rates because it’s managed by crown corporations
The list goes on and on and on
The goal of Canada Post is to offer an essential service to all Canadians at the same low cost, you say private corporations would be better? Well there’s no mail or packages being delivered to remote locations because they don’t want to provide the service. So it’s ok for you to let the private sector handle deliveries and let northern Canada end up being unable to receive mail? Hell, at the moment even in cities is hard to get stuff delivered and costs are much higher than they are with Canada Post, funny how it turns out it’s the opposite of what you said that happens when the private sector is left to handle shit.
Have you ever considered people becoming billionaires of companies that haven’t made a single cent of profit? Spotify never made any profit for example and is still valued at just 96 bn USD

No I’m saying that if their profit didn’t need to take a useless billionaire leech into consideration then prices could be lower.
That last part is complete bullshit as well and you would know it if you knew anything about crown corporations.
You know the profit existed first, right?
Yeah, they’re totally not huge money pits, I was wayyy off, lol.

Stock valuation has nothing to do with the current conversation but billionaires shouldn’t exist at all whole homeless people exist, it’s that simple.
