According to Foreign Affairs, you do not need an IDP to drive in Spain. Their web site is usually up-to-date and accurate. (They recommend an IDP, but that's their standard statement for all countries. When it's required, they say so.)

See item 4 in http://www.voyage.gc.ca/dest/report-...country=274000

I have rented a car in Spain and have not been asked for an IDP. I wouldn't bother.
