Received lump sum pension from defunct Canadian company.

Hi,
I am a US citizen now and live in US. I just received a lump sum pension from a Canadian company I worked for. 54400 gross. They took 25% off 13600. How do I declare this next year? How do I prevent paying a bunch more tax on it? Thanks.
