You will collect BOTH CPP (for 20 years of Cdn work) and SS (for 20 years of US work).
Unfortunately, as it stands now, your SS will be cut back by a formula called WEP, because of your Cdn "pensions" (CPP and private).
Techncially, the companies you worked for will pay your pension. SS and CPP are government retirement benefit plans, not pensions.
