ASP MVC Resource in javascript variable encodes string

Question

I have the following string in resource file.

You can't do this.

And I display it as a tooltip on some button from it's attribute.

$(".completedButton").attr("title", "@(Resources.CompleteBtn)");

It shows the quotation mark like this.

&#8217 ; //without the space

I tried with HttpUtility.JavaScriptStringEncodewith no luck. Any ideas on how should I do this?
