Credit unions are provincial so you just open a new account in the province that you moved to and you can e-transfer between the two accounts if you have payments in your original province.
I left my BC account open because of my car payments to the the credit union and transferred money to the BC account from my Ontario account with a different credit Union every month. When I moved back to BC, I closed the Ontario account after transferring everything back into my BC account.
You can deposit and withdraw from any other credit union ATM without fees across the country. The rates for mortgages can be a little higher than the banks but that is because they are smaller.
