In the study of a locally time-normalized spacetime manifold, the paper proposes a new norm which allows to consider canonical parameters on the curves and, subsequently, a length of a curve and a distance on the manifold. In this class of manifolds, the almost Minkowskian and locally Minkowskian manifolds are regarded and the existence of associated linear connections is analysed.
