Côte-Nord—Kawawachikamach—Nitassinan (formerly Manicouagan) is a federal riding in Quebec, Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons since 1968. Since the 2015 federal election, its Member of Parliament (MP) has been Marilène Gill of the Bloc Québécois (BQ).

The riding was created in 1966 from parts of the Charlevoix and Saguenay ridings.

The neighbouring ridings are Abitibi—Baie-James—Nunavik—Eeyou, Chicoutimi—Le Fjord, Montmorency—Charlevoix—Haute-Côte-Nord, Haute-Gaspésie—La Mitis—Matane—Matapédia, Gaspésie—Les Îles-de-la-Madeleine and Labrador.

This riding gained territory from Montmorency—Charlevoix—Haute-Côte-Nord during the 2012 electoral redistribution.

Following the 2022 federal electoral redistribution the riding was renamed Côte-Nord—Kawawachikamach—Nitassinan.
