Basically if you turn down assistance you do not need to flood proof your home, and will still get assistance next time. Interesting.

That's not how I read that:

The requirement to flood proof to provincial standards will only apply if you're accessing provincial funds to make repairs to your home and you want to have the option to make another claim through our Disaster Recovery Program in the event of a future flood.

It sounds to me like if you are using provincial funds, you must include flood proofing in your repairs. If you use your own funds, you must still include their standard of flood proofing
if you want another claim for a future flood.
Perhaps someone with more legal reading ability can chime in?
