Founded in 2010, the institute is named after John A. Macdonald, a Tory and Canada's first prime minister, and Wilfrid Laurier, a Grit (Liberal) the country's first French-Canadian prime minister. MLI is a registered charity and is funded by corporate and individual donors and private foundations.

MLI's analysis has been described as market-oriented. It is affiliated with the Atlas Network, a conservative and libertarian group based in the United States. MLI says it is non-partisan, a description used for it by The Economist in 2010 and by a story in The Globe and Mail in 2024. In August 2022, Russia designated the MLI as an "undesirable organisation".
