Also, what program are you pasting the quotes and dashes from?
My initial suspicion is that these are not normal quotes and dashes,
but characters from the win-1252 codepage that are in the code point
range 128-159 (decimal), and your ssh client is assuming input in
iso-8859-1 where that code range is reserved for control characters
with the high bit set, so it strips the high bit and passes a control
character through to Emacs.
