You have the option to return to Canada, hope you don't get reported on entry and if you don't, lay low for 2 years until you meet the RO again. That means, don't apply for anything from immigration and don't risk leaving and entering again. Each time you enter while you don't meet the RO, you risk that an immigration officer could report you.

If you do get reported on entry, you have the option to appeal for your PR and then it will depend on your reasons for not meeting the RO whether they let you keep your PR status.
