My biggest concern is that they are now leaving the province and losing ability to track them down at that stage.

As a landlord I wouldn't even really bother pursuing the matter very much. The tenant is responsible for the lease and you have your rights but I figure that any sort of Landlord-Tenant Board meetings or court proceedings would be more hassle than benefit. Do your best to rent it again and get that cash flow going again. You can file a claim against the tenant through the Residential Tenancy Dispute Resolution Board within two years I believe. So you can take some time and file at a later date but it might be tough to find the tenant.
