I am planning to travel from Canada to Thailand for 90 days on Oct 1st 2022.
Can I just show up and get 45 days, then apply for a 45 extension when in Thailand?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The original question concerns the possibility of arriving in Thailand to obtain a 45-day visa on arrival, followed by a 45-day extension. However, the community responses clarify that the visa on arrival currently allows for only 30 days, with potential extensions for an additional 30 days. It is suggested to apply for a tourist visa before traveling to ensure a 60-day stay, plus a possible 30-day extension, bringing the total stay to 90 days. The situation regarding the 45-day visa implementation remains unclear, with it still being 30 days until any changes are confirmed.

what paperwork is the SHA hotel going to get you? I think you have been told wrong?, you just need to go to the local immigration and ask for 30 day extension and pay 1900 baht, they will advise you what paperwork you need as every immigration office is different.
Every hotel in Thailand is legally required to file a TM30 when you arrive. This is why they ask for your passport and make a copy, so they can submit the TM30. You can just ask them for proof of the TM30 and take that with you along with other paperwork to your local immigration office and get a 30 day extension. You can do this when you have 30 days or less left of your tourist stamp-in.
as long as you enter Thailand by the expiration date on the visa (which will be 90 days from the date it is issued) you will be stamped into Thailand for 60 days.
you would deal with the Vancouver Consulate if needed... I found them much easier to deal with then Ottawa. You could do the e-visa for 60(+30). It's all online and easy to do. That way your dates are covered with only a quick trip to immigration in Thailand.
What are the documents required for a tourist sticker visa of 90 days validity?

a tourist visa will get you stamped in for 60 days which you can extend for 30. Check your local consulate for their requirements as it differs from office to office.
