You cannot extend your IEC and you cannot apply for a second one.

If your employer is willing to obtain an approved LMIA, then you can switch to a closed work permit.

Alternatively, you can switch to a Young Professional visa. However in order to apply, you would need to first return to Spain. Also, there must be at least a 3 month break from the time you stop working in Canada to the time you apply for the YP visa.
