The Algonquins of Pikwàkanagàn First Nation (Algonquin: Pikwàkanagàn Omàmiwininiwak), formerly known as the Golden Lake First Nation, are an Algonquin First Nation in Ontario, Canada. Their territory is located in the former township of South Algona (now part of Bonnechere Valley) in the Ottawa Valley on Golden Lake.
