You can sponsor your brother only if he is under the age of 18. Read information on the CIC website about who can be sponsored. A link to the page is noted below:

Most likely you can't sponsor your brother independently. You can only sponsor him if you have no spouse, no children, your parents are no longer alive, and you have no other family in Canada.
