As described, if you show up at the border with an American citizen wife and your furniture, the border people will NOT allow you into the US.

You need your Green card first and that has to be done through the Montreal US Consulate because you are already married.

You need to contact a good US Immigration attorney immediately.  Make sure your attorney is a member of the AILA.  A good start would be to check with Joe Grasmick at www.grasmick.com or Greg Siskind at www.visalaw.com.  Greg has offices in both the US and Canada and both can arrange for a phone consultation for you. �
