Nobody said Holden will become Chevrolet. In some ways I could see two brands operating side-by-side. Chevy at the value end and Holden a little bit more upmarket. Just look at the global GM product lines and you can visualize it.
Thank you for your concern. We were responding to suggestions that it didn't matter to anyone what brand our cars are sold under. No, not at all. No more than all the reasonable people who screamed blue murder about the Monaro being sold as the GTO.

Perhaps if Canada had an automotive industry you would understand. As it doesn't, you have no skin in this game. We have a long history with GM totally misunderstanding the market here and forcing things on Holden that have taken the company backwards in leaps and bounds.

So feel free to pull your head in.
