The word systematic is also a slippery slope. Could the nurses be racist? Yes. Could the entire staff of that unit be racist? Yes. But systematic racism would mean that all aboriginals are treated poorly by the institution where they are not even admitted to the hospital at all or not treated.

Also, language seems to have it's own rules. From above, you can't call someone oriental but you can call them asian. You can call someone white, brown or black and you can't call someone red or yellow.
