first an ESTA is for the USA which if travelling on a Spanish passport to the US then yes you would need an ESTA. Travelling to Canada on a Spanish passport you would need an ETA but Canadian government has delayed implementation until end September so for now no but given is only 7 dollars for 5 years many people just getting it out of the way. Also note if your study permit was issued after August 2015 you may already have an ETA. You may be able to check your ETA status here https://onlineservices-servicesenligne.cic.gc.ca/eta/applicationQuery?lang=en&_ga=1.222525979.1699349018.1462081073
