Sorry, to be sponsored as an orphan, he must be under 18. The only way he could be sponsored is if you are single, have no children, your parents/grandparents are deceased, you don't have a brother/sister/aunt/uncle/nephew/niece living in Canada.

If you don't meet the requirements as listed by PMM, it is also possible for you to sponsor him under a PNP if you have been living in SK or MB for at least a year and your brother meets certain conditions for education and work experience which I am sure he doesn't yet if he is 20 and still studying. You could however work at meeting them.
