About Sherbrooke

Located at the confluence of the Saint-François River (St. Francis River in English) and Magog River, the city is in the centre of an important agricultural region with many dairy farms. There is also some industry in the region. An important business is the manufacture of hockey sticks: more hockey sticks are made in Sherbrooke than anywhere else in the world. Sherbrooke is home to a concrete truss bridge, the first of its kind in the world. -- From Wikipedia
