Canada immigration website says this with regards to family migration.
You can sponsor relatives or family members from abroad if they are:
*your spouse, common-law or conjugal partner 16 years of age or older;
*your parents or grandparents;
*your dependent children, including adopted children;
*children under 18 years of age whom you intend to adopt;
*your brothers, sisters, nephews, nieces or grandchildren who are orphans; under the age of 18 and not married or in a common-law relationship; or
*a relative of any age if you do not have an aunt, uncle or family member from the list above who you could sponsor or who is already a Canadian citizen, Indian or permanent resident.
AS PER THE LAST CRITERION, DOES IT MEAN I, AS A PR, CAN SPONSOR MY BROTHER FOR A PR IF I CHOOSE NOT TO SPONSOR MY PARENT OR ANY OTHER FAMILY MEMBER?

(in reply to: Sponsoring OTHER family members)
The criteria is found in Overseas Processing Manual 2 or OP2 section 5.24 on page 19 here. http://www.cic.gc.ca/manuals-guides/english/op/op02e.pdf
Many ill informed people refer this as the last remaining relative provision but it´s not.
bring the relative in quicker on a work permit if they meet the criteria.
