You cannot sponsor your brother because he is 28 years.

But  you can sponsor him if  eligible by the following  :

you can sponsor one relative regardless of age or relationship only if you do not have a living spouse or common-law partner, conjugal partner, a son or daughter, parent, grandparent, sibling, uncle, aunt, nephew or niece who could be sponsored as a member of the family class, and you do not have any relative who is a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident or registered as an Indian under the Indian Act.

If not, there are other methods how your brother can get in to Canada. Read CIC website:

If your parents are alive - then no, he can't sponsor you.
