The largest city in Québec’s Eastern Townships, about 60 mi/100km east of Montréal and 30 mi/50 km northwest of Québec’s border with Vermont and New Hampshire.
Sherbrooke is known among many New Englanders as the closest city where one can legally buy codeine at the pharmacy without a prescription (Google “Tylenol 1” and “AC&C” for more information). Also, since Québec’s drinking age is 18, many northern New England youth frequent Sherbrooke’s pubs and clubs.
The Eastern Townships are similar in topography to nearby New Hampshire and Vermont and, by Québec standards, a fairly large Anglophone (English-speaking) community, many of whom trace their ancestry to New England loyalists who fled north after the American Revolution.

An indescribable act white people use to initiate others into their fold. Those who have experienced it find it extremely difficult to put into words. Once experienced you gain a greater sense of self and peace. The act is usually started when a white person yells "SHAGBROOKE!!" It is helpful to keep your dominant hand in your pocket while shagbrooking is occuring. Do not fight it as it will only make things worse. It will all be over soon enough and you'll be happy you were shagbrooked. Also make sure to have a towel nearby and ready to use.
