An earthquake zone is likely to be along fault lines or where two or more tectonic plates meet
or a chain of volcanoes parallel to a continental coast.

young mountains along an ocean coast.
Earthquake zones are typically located near tectonic plate boundaries, where the movement of plates causes stress to build up and eventually release as an earthquake. These zones include the Pacific Ring of Fire and the Himalayan region. Areas with active faults and volcanic activity are also prone to earthquakes.
Sedimentary rocks are most likely to form in earthquake zones because they are easily broken, shifted, and compacted by the tectonic forces associated with earthquakes. These rocks can be fractured and deformed as a result of the intense pressure and movement during seismic events.
The Haiti earthquake in 2010 was caused by a strike-slip fault interaction along the Enriquillo-Plantain Garden Fault Zone. This fault zone is located along the boundary between the Caribbean Plate and the North American Plate.

The Panama Canal
No. It is impossible actually. The nearest subduction zone to Sydney is over 6,000 miles away. Any earthquake that would occur in Sydney would be an intraplate earthquake.
