Why does this charge appear?

When FreshBooks processes subscription payments for its invoicing software, the asterisk format in "FRESHBOOKS*" is a standard truncation method used by payment processors like Stripe or Braintree, which insert the asterisk to separate the merchant name from any additional billing descriptor information such as a plan tier or billing period. Because bank statement fields have strict character limits, the full display of "FreshBooks" gets compressed into the uppercase shorthand "FRESHBOOKS*" to fit within those constraints. If you're seeing a recurring charge of around $17.00 from this descriptor, it's almost certainly your monthly FreshBooks subscription for one of their Lite or Plus plans billed through their Canadian-based billing system.
