US couple wants to retire to Canada with a living trust

QUESTION:

We are US citizens contemplating early retirement and moving to Canada (applying for Canadian residency).

Post retirement income will mainly be funds distributed from retirement plans.

Currently we have a living trust established here for estate planning.

Please advise re: tax consequences, and also, if this trust will be applicable under Canadian law.
How can I buy "The Border Book"?
Thanks for your help.
