Or a prankster with a macabre sense of humor who is somehow graverobbing or otherwise getting hold of deceased bodies to cut off their feet and cast them onto the waters.
You open up most of the Pacific coast and it's considerably less mysterious. How many non-sensationalized missing persons cases have you heard about from four towns over? Another province? It's not that they don't exist. It's just that you just don't know about them.
Those currents tend not to push anything from open water into the Sound. Downtown Tacoma is on the mouth of the Puyallup; the entrance to the open water at the Strait of Juan de Fuca is another 80 or so miles north. The rivers and prevailing South-Western winds tend to flush the stuff north.
Meaning if these feet are (ahem) connected, they are either all dumped in rivers and made their way north to BC, or someone is getting more varied in his or (doubtfully) her disposal sites.
Wasn't there a similar story a couple of years ago about disconnected feet turning up on West Coast beaches. After investigation, it seemed they were from various people who had gone overboard in the Pacific. Feet come loose pretty easily in the sea, apparently - especially when the body they belong to has drifted into some ship's propellers, as people falling overboard tend to do....
